In the Winter Session of Parliament in February 2022, Prime Minister Narendra Modi posed aquestion, ‘What if there was no Congress in India?’ This question reflected the sentiments expressedby Mahatma Gandhi in 1948 in what was perhaps theastetter written by him. He wrote threedays before his assassination that the Congress in its current form had ‘outlived its use’ and shouldbe disbanded.What would Bharat of today beike had Mahatma Gandhi’s call for disbandment of the Congressbeen heeded? The book revisits some of the key events that shaped India’s political history over thelast 80 years—Partition, Kashmir, governance, scams, democracy and its interruptions, economicpolicy, intellectual colonization and foreign policy.India’s modern-day history has been told to suit a particular political narrative. But it’s imperativethat history be retold with fairness and accuracy in order toearn from the mistakes of the past.The current generation demands and deserves solutions to historical wrongs. Indians need to be presented with raw, unbiased, unfiltered, historically accurate information so that they can use theirown judgement and walk the path towards the new India.This is the first-ever rethink of how different India would have been, if not for the Congress partybeing at the helm for the most part of theast 80 years. More importantly, the book is also aroadmap to the India of tomorrow.
