圖書名稱:A Modern History of Jammu and Kashmir, Volume One the Troubled Years of Maharaja Hari Singh (1925-1949)

內容簡介

The modern history of Jammu and Kashmir is often focused mainly on the

Kashmir valley, leaving out the other regions that make up the bulk of the

erstwhile Princely State. A similar limitation marks most discussions of the

rule of the fourth-generation Dogra ruler of Jammu and Kashmir, Maharaja

Hari Singh. After his inheritance of the throne in 1925, Hari Singh introduced

a number of progressive reforms-among them, programmes for girl

education, opening temple doors for Dalits and abolishing the exploitative

begar system of labour. However, contemporary historians look past these

reforms and focus only on the issue of the accession of the State to India.

At a time when the entire subcontinent was reeling from the shock and

violence of Partition, the Maharaja had to decide which dominion-India or

Pakistan-the State would join. How was he to choose where to put his trust,

especially after Pakistan-backed Pashtun tribals invaded the State and India

refused to offer military help? Was any decision possible that would appease

all-the Muslim majority of Kashmir, the Hindu majority of Jammu and the

Buddhist majority of Ladakh?

Those tumultuous times took a toll on Hari Singh during the final years of his

reign. Accession to India was not as easy as he had hoped, and pressurised by

Nehru and Sardar Patel, the Maharaja was forced to choose exile in 1949 and

spent the rest of his days in Bombay.

Harbans Singh’s A Modern History of Jammu and Kashmir, Volume One: The Troubled

Years of Maharaja Hari Singh (1925-1949) offers a more rounded history of the

State than most available scholarship. The first volume in a trilogy, this book

offers a strong and nuanced defence of the last ruler of Jammu and Kashmir

and is a valuable document in understanding its evolving history.
