At the stroke of the midnight hour: lord Mountbatten and the British media at Indian independence / Kaul, Chndrika   Journal Article
Kaul, Chndrika Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2008.
Summary/Abstract This article examines the portrayal of Indian Independence in the British media with particular attention to the orchestration of official publicity by Lord Mountbatten and his press attach , Alan Campbell-Johnson. The British press was able to portray Independence as a British achievement, arising almost organically out of its long-term policy and vindicating British rule. The article also explores press portrayal of Indian leaders, the Princely States, the role of the Commonwealth and communal violence.

Betrayal of trust: princely states of india and the transfer of power / Bangash, Yaqoob Khan   Journal Article
Bangash, Yaqoob Khan Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2006.
Summary/Abstract This article analyses why and how the princely order, once considered the bulwark of British rule, came tumbling down so rapidly within a few months in 1947, following the intervention of Lord Mountbatten, a royal cousin, who the princes thought would support them in preserving their rule and privileges. How far were the princes themselves to blame and what role did Mountbatten play? Through a careful re-examination of available sources this article argues that the princes, though unable to act together, trusted the British Crown to protect their rights and interests as promised, but were mistaken in believing that Mountbatten would uphold Britain's treaty obligations regarding the princely states.

Publication 2009.
Summary/Abstract As an Indian Secretary General takes up the reins of the Commonwealth this analysis looks back to the symbiotic birth of India and the modern Commonwealth in 1947-1949. It asks whether we can learn anything from the decision-making process that brought them together initially that might inform our comprehension of their current relationship and the opportunities for further contemporary engagement.
