ABSTRACT
How did a non-practicing, chain-smoking Muslim lawyer, who liked adrink, barely knew the basics of Islam, could speak no language other than English, preferred to dress in an immaculate suit, almost settled down in England, snubbed mullahs for dreaming of an Islamic state, abhorred Gandhi for his hymn-chanting politics, and dreamt of becoming an Indian Ataturk, single-handedly create Pakistan? Pakistan was meant to be a solution to the problems between Hindus and Muslims. Why did India and Pakistan sink into such bitter hatred, and start a war that became a school for terrorism?
