My Ideal Of Nation First By Uday Mahurkar (English)

Independent India’s greatest tragedy was the thrusting of Muslim appeasement policies on the nation under pressure of left-liberals and pan-Islamists. It was the biggest blow to the Hindus—the majority community which was freeing itself from foreign bondage after 800 years. It also laid the foundation for divisive politics in the country. Even Dr B.R. Ambedkar was opposed to such appeasement which meant denying Hindus the full possession of Ayodhya, Kashi-Vishwanath and Mathura temples.

My Idea of Nation First provides deep insights into these issues, besides providing a nationalist view on many controversial episodes. While warning about various threats, this book reserves ample space for truly moderate minorities in keeping with Veer Savarkar’s thoughts, which have often been distorted by his ideological adversaries in the historical past.

My Idea of Nation First is about unalloyed nationalism, or true nation-first. It is a humble attempt to remove distortions in history with a truly nationalist and dispassionate approach. In a way, this book can also be called a bundle of innovative writings on national awakening. Complete truthfulness is the cornerstone of the chapters included here.
