Noorani's treatment of the Allahabad High Court decision of September 30, 2010 ... is indeed remarkable... Noorani also puts together documents, investigative stories in newspapers and news portals to tell us, once again, the story of how the demolition was planned and the details were known to the Union Government at that time... This book is an important addition especially in terms of the documents that are reproduced and will be of immense help to scholars, researchers and anyone interested in knowing one of the tragic events that contemporary India witnessed. -- V. Krishna Ananth The Hindu
