Ram Jethmalani: The Congress secularism myth
I also request my readers to revisit the Independence movement, and examine the role of the Congress Party in aiding and abetting the colonial powers in launching communal politics in India, that ended with the partition of India. There was no BJP during those years, so the standard accusation of communalism cannot be pointed towards them for the religious divide that developed in the Independence Movement, eventually culminating in the creation of Pakistan on religious lines. The onus of alienating the Muslims in pre-independence India can only rest on the Indian National Congress — for their repeated inability to deal successfully with the Muslim League, and their greed for power during those years — so much so, that large sections of influential Muslims went to the extent of exchanging their patriotism for the Two Nation call. The unpardonable and irreversible blunders of the Congress are documented in history, their refusal to share power with Muslims for one-third seats in the Central Legislature, or address their political security demands in a spirit of give and take, the failure of the Nehru Report of 1928, under the chairmanship of Motilal Nehru with Jawaharlal Nehru as secretary, and the ensuing "parting of ways" with Jinnah and his 14 points as a Muslim leader, and finally succumbing to the Two Nation Theory and creation of Pakistan.
How can the same Congress party that disastrously failed to protect the political security and interests of the Muslims of undivided India when it had to deal with the issue full front, and instead drove them to seek a separate state based on their religion, claim to be their only protector today? Accepting the solution of partition was tantamount to the Indian National Congress pleading guilty to that charge.
