Goodbye Dr Singh
May 14, 2014 14:03
Good bye Dr. Manmohan Singh.
You had once said that you hoped that history remembers you more kindly than the present does. Given that history at least in our country is written by a cabal of historians that are ideologically well-oriented towards your world-view and viscerally opposed to your opponents, you might very well get your wish. Be as it may, and I would not grudge you the odd hagiography, the thing is Dr. Singh I will not remember you kindly.
And let me explain why. Read Arnab Ray's blog
