Pavan K. Varma
Pavan K. Varma is an Indian author and politician known for his writings on Indian culture and politics.
"Over the years the Indian leadership, and the educated Indian, have deliberately projected and embellished an image about Indians that they know to be untrue, and have wilfully encouraged the well-meaning but credulous foreign observer to accept it. What is worse, they have fallen in love with this image, and can no longer accept that it is untrue."
