The book put forwards almost opposite stand points then the most popular stand on controversial issues namely death penalty for Afzal guru, riots after Godhra carnage and evolution of nationalist Hinduvavadi politics. As a reader, you are allowed to disagree but at least need to accept existence of alternative view point. The language of the book is very lucid and all the claims are supported by some evidences. However, authenticity of evidence could be subjective.
The book will surely contribute strengthening our democracy in time to come

The content published in this book is written after deft political analysis. There is lot more in the book that speaks loudly about the democracy, its people, pain and mystery behind the incidents (Parliamentary attack, Ghodra train burning case, Chittisinghpura massacre) that took place.
