Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has been said that the road to hell is often paved with best intentions, and despite the probable best intentions, 'The Nehruvian Era, 1947-64' unfortunately laid the firm foundations of India's misery. The same are detailed in this two-part book. This part deals with the major foreign policy and external security issues. Chapter-1 gives an overview of the history of J&K, and details chronologically how Nehru, by arrogantly ignoring wise councils and making one blunder after another, single-handedly created the Kashmir problem that bedevils India till today. Chapter-2 details how creation of Pakistan-II was frustrated by Sardar Patel by a firm policy on the integration of the Hyderabad Princely State, despite Nehru's muddle-headedness. Chapter-3 is a sad story on how India under Nehru pusillanimously and irresponsibly created a permanent severe external security threat for India by allowing our peaceful neighbour Tibet to be erased as a nation, without even registering a protest in the international fora. Chapter-4 is the shocking story of how India drifted into an unnecessary war with China in 1962 by failing to settle the borders peacefully, despite an overlong time of a decade and a half to settle it, willingness of China to do so, and the multiple opportunities that presented themselves; and how with irresponsibly no preparation, Nehru&Co shamed India before the world in that war. Chapter-5 summarises the many foreign policy and external security failures of the Nehruvian era.
