More about the book

Focusing on Khizr Tiwana's pivotal role as the Unionist Premier of Punjab from 1942 to 1947, this biography explores his conflict with Jinnah over the region's future amidst rising Muslim separatism. The narrative highlights how the demand for Pakistan overshadowed Tiwana's vision of cross-communal cooperation and decentralization, ultimately leading to his political downfall post-Partition. Given the ongoing communal tensions in India and Pakistan, the book offers a timely re-evaluation of Tiwana's ideals and their relevance to contemporary issues.
