ABSTRACT
Shashi Tharoor is a politician who was earlier a senior official in the UN. In this book, he paints a horrific portrait of British doings in colonial India and compares them to Nazi doings in WWII, including the Holocaust. The subject is chosen as an argument for reparations notionally due to India for the depredations of colonialism. The chapter looks at how, despite his ardently nationalist approach, Tharoor betrays his affinities with Britain, thereby justifying the line adopted in the proposed book.
