Khushwant Singh (born 2 February 1915)....
Many of you may recall this great journalist whose career span exceeded over five decades and was full of provocative and controversial views of his.
He was the editor of The illustrated Weekly [It started publication in 1880 (as Times of India Weekly Edition, later renamed as The Illustrated Weekly of India in 1923) and ceased publication in 1993.]
I came across his autobiography….a 423 page colossal book. (See the scanned image attached.) Apart from his attractive style of writing, this gives a thorough picture of Indian politics of his era.
