Description
Laloo Yadav and Nitish Kumar, chalk and cheese. One a charismatic populist, the other a shrewd introvert. Taken together, a mesmerizing duo: heroes to some, villains to others, champions of the underdog yet imperious of manner; allies in youth, foes in mid-life, now ageing veterans. For a quarter of a century, the two by turns dictated the destiny of Bihar.What do Laloo and Nitish mean to Bihar? Here, for the first time, a revised and updated omnibus edition of Sankarshan Thakur's widely acclaimed biographies of the men. From one of India's finest journalists, this masterful narrative--part personal memoir, part political portraiture, part unsparing perspective--is essential reading to understand Bihar. In the lives of the two giants also lies the arresting story of one of India's largest and most challenging states.

Interesting and informative. Could get the pulse in Bihar today and can guess what is coming. The analysis is very interesting and the empowerment of the downtrodden mass very inspiring.
