One of the epic works from Dr Ambedkar, which categorically explains the separatist politics of the Muslim League and how the Congress party along with the British Government played their role in the partition of India. This book will definitely take you to the unheard side of the partition. Dr Ambedkar takes a critical approach in clarifying the situation instead of being judgmental on the issue.

Ambedkar was a leader in the struggle for Indian independence, the architect of the new nation's constitution, and the champion of civil rights for the 60 million members of the "untouchable" caste, to which he belonged. He spoke and wrote ceaselessly on behalf of "untouchables," but his passion for justice was broad: in 1950 he resigned from his position as the country's first minister of law when Nehru's cabinet refused to pass the Women's Rights Bill. Ambedkar was committed to maintaining his independence, and many of the positions he staked out in a long and complex relationship with Gandhi-on the future of Hinduism, for example—remain central to debate within Indian society.
