I saw Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer earlier this week. The main character in the film, J.

In these respects he was akin to Albert Einstein, who makes several appearances in the movie itself. [...]

My first editor, Rukun Advani, once described himself as ‘a composite hybrid of the Indian and the Anglo-European’, who sought to reconcile ‘within himself those varying cultural influences which chauvinistic nationalists could only see as contradictions.’ This self-characterization I might avow as my own.

My first meeting with him, when I was in my early twenties, had an transformative impact on my life. I have met him many times since; each encounter providing fresh insights into the moral, political and environmental [...]

Last month I spent several stimulating days in Mizoram. I had some knowledge of the state’s political history, met numerous Mizos in the course of my life, but never visited the state before. I flew first to Guwahati, where I caught up with some old friends, gloried in my sightings of the Brahmaputra, and spoke [...]

In about a week’s time we shall mark the sixtieth anniversary of the death of India’s first Prime Minister, Jawaharlal Nehru. This column focuses on one key aspect of Nehru’s political career, his collaboration with Vallabhbhai Patel. These two men worked shoulder-to-shoulder during the freedom struggle and in the early years of Independence. They had [...]
