A Brilliant Writer

P.Sainath is a brilliant development writer. Amartya Sen calls him one of the world's greatest experts on famine and hunger.
I first came about reading this person's articles in the Hindu, when he went about India writing about some of the poorest districts with striking simplicity. His articles used to hit you in the gut, always. He writes with amazing clarity and purpose that is not much seen these days. You will best understand this, if you read his article in the Hindu that appeared today. This article analyses the reasons behind the verdict of Elections 2004.

Among the plethora of articles that I have read regarding the analysis of the verdict of Elections 2004, this is the best.And I am very sure that I will have plenty to write about this writer in the future too. May his tribe increase!
