He would insist on walking long distances even in old age to reach the marginalised to help them or to at least express solidarity with them. The publication of English translation of his Pakhto autobiography is coming out at a time when younger generations are rediscovering Bacha Khan’s life and struggle.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAfrasiab Khattak,\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eFormer Provincial President of Awami National Party, former senator, writer and analyst of regional affairs\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“This compelling story is more relevant now than ever.

The autobiography of Bacha Khan in English, for the first time in a lucid translation from the original Pakhto by Imtiaz Ahmad Sahizada, is a landmark publication. The history of modern South Asia has been incomplete without a better understanding of how and why the fierce Pashtun tribes embraced the Gandhian ideology of non-violent defiance. My Life and Struggle introduces a new and younger generation to the tribulations of the Pashtuns.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAhmed Rashid\u003c\/strong\u003e,\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eAuthor of Pakistan on the Brink: The Future of America, Pakistan and Afghanistan, 2012\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAli Raza is Associate Professor of History at the Lahore University of Management Sciences.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"extra\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eFolio Books\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublishing date:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e2021\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e978-969-7834-05-1\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBinding:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ePaperback\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e584\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Folio books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48093942251737,"sku":null,"price":800.0,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/9902\/4857\/files\/WhatsAppImage2024-09-16at23.57.59-a27705ad_d5050562-10c0-4e42-bc03-990cc9cd49ac.jpg?v=1772704027","url":"https:\/\/bookdiscovery.store\/products\/my-life-and-struggle-the-autobiography-of-abdul-ghaffar-khan-by-bacha-khan","provider":"Bookdiscovery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
