The story this book follows begins on August 15, 1947. As the new
nation-states of India and Pakistan prepared to negotiate land and
power, the citizens of the princely state of Hyderabad experienced
the unravelling of an intense political conflict between the Union
government of India and the local ruler, the Nizam of Hyderabad.
The author explores how the state of Hyderabad was struggling to
produce its own tools of cultural renaissance and modernity in the
background of the Union Government of India's deployment of the
central army, the Nizam's idea of an 'Islamic state' and the
Telangana Armed struggle fostered by leftist parties. With evidence
from the oral histories of various sections - both Muslims and
non-Muslims - and a wide variety of written sources and historical
documents, this book captures such an intense moment of new
politics and cultural discourses.
