In India they give ample opportunity to be intensely disliked and deservedly so ". His disdain for the politician is evident in his comment, "Politicians are never liked anywhere in the world. His comments about politics and politicians are well grounded, "The largest and the least regulated 'industry' in India is politics". It was surprising that on a number of occasions he allowed himself to be pilloried. He goes on to add, "Most anchors are rudely inquisitorial, and pillory the guests". He has a perfect understanding of the media as well, "Indian television which started off mostly to entertain has now become increasingly didactic". Author's analyses about the state of affairs is spot on as are his prescriptions. A remarkable book by someone who had seen it all.
