His dense prose may have been uncharitably described as pamphleteering by the conceited Nehruvian Intellectual establishment but Shourie’s books and hundreds of lengthy op-ed interventions continue to constitute the core manifesto of right-wing nationalist discourse. His extraordinarily poignant personal situation (struggle is eloquently captured in one of his books) justifiably adds to the larger than life image that he enjoys among his die-hard supporters. But his political modus operandi has been slightly murky and truth be told does not add any luster to this much feted public intellectual. centreright.in/2014/05/will-narendrabhai-miss-arun-shourie/#.U4YKxfldXGB
