Presenting from AIR Archives Radio Autobiography of Harishankar Parsai (1924 - 1995).
A famous Hindi writer and satirist who gave satire the status of a genre and brought it out of the traditional purview of light-hearted entertainment and linked it to the wider questions of society.
Harishankar Parsai has caught very closely the truths of the middle-class mind, which is increasingly hollow in our social and political system. While ridiculing social hypocrisy and orthodox life-values, he has always presented conscience and scientific outlook in a positive way.
