Ram Chandra Kak, the Kashmiri Pandit prime minister of Jammu and Kashmir, was ousted by
Maharaja Hari Singh, and put behind bars on the eve of India and Pakistan’s independence. Over
the decades, the blame for Maharaja Hari Singh’s indecision regarding Kashmir’s position is laid at
the feet of the previous Prime Minister.
For the first time in history, witness the truth of Ram Chandra Kak’s career and life. Consisting of
letters and diary entries by his wife Margaret Kak, as well as sections from Kak’s unpublished memoir
that looks at his career in state administration, this book reveals a side to the family and Kashmir
that has never been seen before. Written by their grandson Siddhartha Kak and their daughter Lila
Kak Bhan, this book is a glimpse of a couple that was present at the precipice of history, facing all
obstacles thrown their way with grace and courage.
