This is a very good book that raises some serious and reasonable questions over the political mysteries that have remain unanswered since independence. The best chapters to look out for are the ones on
Shyama Prasad Mookherjee, Deendayal Upadhyay and the Purulia arms dropping case. It is a must read for everyone regardless of their political inclinations... Avinash Singh
Growing up, have heard a few political conspiracies from my father (a history school teacher). They were just conspiracies with not much research/facts. But, this book presents facts relating to such mysteries, kindling one's thoughts. Each chapter can be read individually. Good read...Leo F. Thangaraj
