CONTEMPORARY SOCIO CULTURAL HISTORY OF INDIA IN KHUSHWANT SINGH'S AUTOBIOGRAPHY
Ambika Das Mohapatra
Abstract :
Khushwant Singh was one of the paramount Indian writers and journalists of all times. Khushwant Singh has an India–wide understanding of our social problems. His writings depict with force, illiance and passion the problems which torture and torment the Indian spirit in contemporary times. He has pointed out the drawbacks that plague India, which hold her back from moving full steam ahead on the path of progress. If we seek to understand the India of today which we love so passionately, we find a vivid reflection of it in his writings. In Indian literary history Khushwant Singh`s name is bound to evolve as one of the finest historians and novelists, a forthright political commentator, and an outstanding observer and social critic. He is attributed with freethinking. Kushwant Singh`s comparisons of social and behavioral characteristics of Indians and Westerners are the examples of his acid wit.
