Review : The Verdict by Prannay Roy

Going through the book section of Flipkart.com , I eventually found a very eye catching book in maroon and reddish colour with big white capital letters title " THE VERDICT" by Prannoy Roy and Dobara S. Sopariwala. And more than that the concept of book insisted my eyes to look through it, just behind the title of the book : "Decoding India's Election". I grew up watching NDTV and I always admired Prannoy Roy. I remember he often appears on channel especially when it's an election season. I had no second thought about this book, I orders it on the spot. I was curious about the topic of this book and the interpretation of an intellectual like Prannoy Roy.

The book had engrossing contents which amused me and had literally made me thought about decoding an India's electio...

Review - NEHRU - The Invention of India by Shashi Tharoor

Well , I can confidently say that my summer holidays went quite productive because the books which I opted to read and especially non fictional were exhilarating and I was poured with great facts and knowledge which were unclear to me and helped me to understand better about some of the few ideologies and incidents which are very essential to understand today because the facts are portrayed in a very distorted manner especially about the deeds and misdeeds of Indian freedom struggle and post independence era.  (Image Source : The one who is writing the blog !

Month of June and July are the months of holidays and relaxing for school and college students because these are the hottest months of the year and we are privileged with "summer vacations" in these months . Well I am an undergraduate student in Delhi University , so I thought to utilize my holidays with reading some interesting books rather than opting for internships in such scorching heat by sitting at home under the AC while having snacks . It sounds so "Lethargic" .... LOL .  (Image Source : The one who is writing the blog ! Thanks me later 😉) But eventually it turned very fruitful . This was so because , the list of books I decided to read were all non fictional and all the books were given to me by my dad and one of them was " Why I am a Liberal " by Sagarika Ghose . I am just done with this book and I am totally stunned by this book . Hats off to her !!🙆   (Image Source : Pixbay ) Now , Lets talk about the book ...
