While narrating the facts of 1971 indo- pak war he very rightly splls out a question - pakistan was split while the country had a General at the helm of state of affairs. will the country be split again with a General at the helm of affairs - a pointer, he argues - as it is not in the interest of pakistan and india both. If a further split occurs, it will be in the interest of foreign powers. ISBN : 81-7049-124-X.., 2001.
