1947: Sardar Patel is tasked to integrate the princely states of India into one united nation. Hyderabad – ruled by the Nizam – is a place of immense strategic importance.
Despite a majority of Hindu subjects, the Nizam is inclined to join hands with Pakistan. The Nizam’s militia, infamously known as the Razakars, have brutally oppressed the citizens of the state into silence for decades. When an opportunity to end their suffering arises, the citizens plead with Sardar Patel to save them.
Operation Polo is a captivating historical account of the events surrounding the integration of Hyderabad into the Republic of India via means of decisive military action. The book offers an immersive journey showcasing the political manoeuvres, diplomatic efforts, and military tactics that culminated in a united India.
