Summary, etc Where Borders Bleed is a keenly observed and anecdotal account of a factious landscape that has long engaged global attention: the Indo-Pak region. Covering almost seventy years of conflict, it chronicles the events leading up to Partition, reflects on the consequent strife, and provides a fresh, discursive perspective on the figures who have shaped the story of this land from Lord Louis Mountbatten and Muhammad Ali Jinnah to Atal Bihari Vajpayee and Manmohan Singh.

Covering historical, diplomatic and military perspectives, Where Borders Bleed is intrepid, engaging with a range of contentious issues that have shaped Indo-Pak relations water sharing, Kashmir and Article 370. Equally, it is speculative. It asks: would terror have affected the world the way it has, if Pak India had been a benign single entity? What if India and Pakistan were to reunite, much like East and West Germany? As the now-largest nation in the world, would the mammoth Pak India radically change the globe s geo-political framework?

These questions combined with the author s own diplomatic access to rare archival material and key leaders across borders make this a one-of-a-kind book on the story of India and Pakistan.

A compellingly written account of India, Pakistan and the history of the subcontinent, rich in anecdote.

Written by India's former consul general to Karachi, the book presents rare archival material, interviews and insights into the lives of key Indo-Pak leaders.

Engages with contentious issues that define Indo-Pak relations water sharing, Article 370 and Kashmir and speculates on the future of geopolitics had Pak India been a single entity.
