"This month I recommend the book “History of the Pathans” by Brig (r) Haroon Rashid. Volume Seven, which I am reading, is about Pathan tribes like mine who came to India from Afghanistan in the last one thousand years and settled in various parts of India," the prime minister wrote on Twitter.

"It traces the role they played in shaping the history of India," he shared.

Previously, the premier had also asked fans to read the famous books ‘Lost Islamic History’ and   Elif Shafak's “The Forty Rules of Love” to bring them closer to religion.
