Red Jihad

''Red Jihad: Battle for South Asia'' is a political/military thriller by Sami Ahmad Khan. It was published by Rupa & Co. in June 2012. ''Red Jihad'' was hailed as one of the first novels to fictionalize the Maoist-Mujahideen nexus in the Indian Red Corridor and for dramatizing the links between religious fundamentalism and political terrorism in India.

''Red Jihad'' was Khan's debut. After its publication, ''Businessworld'' magazine said Khan might have started a genre that will lead many youngsters to learn the English language the way an earlier generation learnt it through Robert Ludlums and Fredrick Forsyths. Khan has also been labelled as the Indian equivalent of Tom Clancy by the ''Millennium Post''. Provided by Wikipedia
