Extract
The night has passed,
The whole day has gone,
Lady, tie up your hair,
The hair so dishevelled:
One December 12th has passed,
Another December 12th has come.
Have you forgotten?
Did you believe that your hair could be tied?
Did you believe that this day would ever return?
(poem by Hijam Irabot)
The story of what V. P. Menon euphemistically termed the ‘integration’ of the Indian States has still not yet received the scholarly attention it deserves.
