V. P. Menon (Vappala Pangunni Menon birth: 30 September 1893, death: 31 December 1965), the author was a prominent Government official during this period. He has written a detailed narrative of events as he witnessed them.
V. P. Menon was son of a school headmaster in Kerala, Menon worked as a railway stoker, coal miner and Bangalore tobacco company clerk before gaining a junior post in the Indian Civil Service. By working assiduously, Menon rose through the ranks to become the highest serving Indian officer in British India. In 1946, he was appointed Political Reforms Commissioner to the British Viceroy. His long association with constitutional developments in India, fortified by subsequent research has enabled him to write with knowledge and experience of the great problems faced and overcome in the struggle for independence, from the early days in the thirties to the transfer itself in 1947.
V. P. Menon was the Constitutional Adviser to the last three Viceroys during British rule in India. He was the only Indian in Mountbatten’s inner team. Menon’s plan for the partition of India into two Dominions was the one that was eventually adopted. It was Menon who realized the need to get the Princely States to accede to India before the date of independence and that Mountbatten was the ideal person to facilitate this. He is also called the Architect of Modern India.
