Rajmohan Gandhi

Have you heard of him? Rajmohan Gandhi: writer, professor of Economics at the Univeristy of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, mentor to countless students to who seek to study with him. He is also the grandson of the late Mahatma Gandhi.

Meeting him was the most amazing thing I have experienced in a long time.

He recently published a biography on Badshah Khan. I can't believe this. Seriously.

More on this later.

Haven't heard of him but I've heard of Badshah Khan.. does that count?

jenani said...

Sure it does. Badshah Khan is amazing. Discovering him changed my outlook on a lot of things... specifically the role of Muslims in the Non-violent movement of India.
