As an economist, Sen may be high above us mere mortals, perched atop a pedestal. But as a political partisan, he is one of us, with biases that are no different from those we nourish and nurture. It could be claimed that his biases are ‘good’ and those of partisans who disagree with him are ‘bad’. That, however, is purely subjective and not borne out by empirical evidence which lies at the core of any objective assessment. And, having chosen to be a political partisan, Sen can’t complain if he is subjected to the same kind of heckling as all partisans are. Kanchan Gupta
