Ebook: AN INDICTMENT Whose Responsibility For The Failure of 1942

Hero-Worship is a general characteristic of Indian-life
óand nowhere more so than in politics. Ignorance of
factsócolossal both in Depth and Extentóis the cardinal
reason for it. This series of ëChangersí Publicationsí will try
to remedy the defect in both of its aspects. It shall try to
be both informative and interpretative. It shall also attempt to
guide the trend of Indian Politics on more rational and
national lines. This ëphamphlet No. 1í of the Series attempts
a Nationalistic Appraisal of the Great Insurrection of 1942
and tries to investigate the causes of its failure. If the
presentation seem unnecessarily bitter, we only say Failures
are a luxury we can not afford to repeat. In order to avoid
misunderstanding we may say outright that we have nothing
in common with the so-called Communist Party of India.
With us ëIndiaís Freedom is first and Indiaís Freedom
is lastí (Bose).
