Hello readers !

                  Once again welcome to my world.  This is our thinking activity task given by Dr. Dilip Barad sir on Shashi Tharoor and dark era of Inglorious empire . CLICK HERE to view about the task . So , first I would like to give some brief introduction about the Shashi Tharoor . So, let's go.

# Shashi Tharoor :-


" Western dictionaries define secularism as absence of religion but Indian secularism does not mean irreligiousness . It means profusion of religion ".




             Shashi Tharoor ( born 19 March 1956 ) is an Indian politician, writer and former international diplomat who is currently serving as  member of parliament , Lok Sabha from Thiruvananthapuram , Kerala . since 2009 . He also serves as  chairman of the parliamentary standing committee on Information Technology and all India professional Congress . He formerly served as Christian committee on external affairs ( 2014 to 2019 ).

                           Tharoor has been a columnist in each of  India's three best known English language newspapers ,

1. The Hindu
2.Times of India
3. Indian Express

                   His monthly column " India reawakening" distributed by project syndicate, appears in 80 newspapers around the world . He wrote many great works like ,
  • An Era Of Darkness (2016)
  • Why I Am A Hindu (2018)
  • The Paradoxical Prime Minister (2018)
  • The Great Indian Novel (2011)

# The Era Of Darkness :-

                 
                       The Era Off Darkness is published in 2016 . In An Era of Darkness, consummate debater and author Shashi Tharoor recreates The British Raj with all its horror and also elucidates the awe-inspiring struggle of India's freedom fighters . He gives us a valuable insight on how dark forces operate and on who are having us harbingers of hope . It is a valuable lesson at a time when thugs are masquerading as our saviour ..... At a time when debate has been reduced to a cacophony of slogans and insult by bhakts , Shashi Tharoor's writing , with it's expansive case studies and citations and sastained argument , all argumented by his Felicity of language , may just came as an eye opener to as all  ( Huffington Post ) .

                     'An Era of Darkness' is a non-fiction work of Dr. Shashi Tharoor which drastically changes the perception of colonized culture against the civilized colonizers. It also throws light on the adverse effects of the British on the Indian economy while colonialism was deeply rooted.
