Shashi Tharoor has been a vocal critic of the British Raj in his literary works, Shashi Tharoor, an Indian author, politician, and former diplomat, has written extensively on various aspects of India's history, including the British Raj. In his works, he often contests and critiques the impact of British colonial rule on India. Dr.ShashiTharoor has made in his non-fiction An Era of Darkness - The British Empire in India(SahityaAkademiAward 2019) which proves that for the nation, the British rule was an era of darkness and his other work - Inglorious Empire: What British did to India- tells the story of colonial exploitation of the Indian Sub-Continent from an eye of a colonised subject. Tharoor, contrary to historical books, has taken acute evidences from reliable sources and accuses the British for everything which was not good in India. The long saga of suppression by British is presented by Tharoor, where they very smartly destructed and weakened political institutions by hook or crook, by offering bribes and building up pressure.
