Hello readers!

Here is my blog on Sahitya Akademi Award 2019: Shashi Tharoor's An Era of Darkness as Sunday reading blog.


Shashi Tharoor :




         Shashi Tharoor was born in London. Dr Tharoor was educated in India and the United States, completing a PhD in 1978 at the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy at Tufts University. In 1998 the World Economic Forum in Davos named him a ‘Global Leader of Tomorrow’. 
Dr. Tharoor has served as Minister of State for Human Resource Development and Minister of State for External Affairs in the Government of India. 

         In a passionate argument lok sabha MP Shashi Tharoor demanded reparation payment from the UK to india for 200 years of its colonial rules.

         The speech at Oxford by Shashi Tharoor. Shashi Tharoor was try to pay attention to the argument at Oxford Union . He says that we have advanced by the opposition today. He gives many examples also.
      He says that Britain were exported products. There were actually muslim making products and they taking raw material from india and world's markets became the products of the dark and the Victoria in England. British were trying to do their colonial enterprise and bring the benefit of colonialism and civilization. He also says that violence and racism are the reality of the colonial experience.
     
              In the interest of British colonialism and the fact is that many of today's problem in these countries including the racial , ethnic and tensions so, there is the direct result of colonialism.

              Dr. Tharoor give a lecture on Looking Back at the British Raj in India and  how the British Raj has shaped the narrative around India-UK relations.
The beginnings of British colonialism in the South Asian subcontinent. Shashi Tharoor argued  the production of high quality textiles that were sought after the roman Empire. He set about some of the "alleged benefit" of colonial rule.
           
  In his speech looking at the present day he expressed his concern that the lack of colonial memory in Britain.
           
   Tharoor's Indian identity is his passionate of the British Raj. His narrative of British rule in India make a change from European colonialism. 
               
 In the Inglorious empire in the role of India support for the raj . There is something valuable and attention about colonialism.
