In these articles, the writer pens down some of the most important and "controversial" issues of our times. Very often avoided by the so called "mainstream" media, he goes out of the way to write what many others usually refuse to touch. 

Not a professional journalist but an academic, his writings bear the stamp of decades of serious research and thinking. He exposes the pathetic plight of the persecuted Hindu, Buddhist, Sikh and other minorities in Pakistan and Bangladesh while bringing under the scanner the nature of their state system and religio-political culture. India's external relations with these two countries is a major component of his writings. A pioneering scholar of refugee studies in India, he advocates their case, backed up as he is by empirical data and empathy. The absurdity of the Kashmiri Hindus as refugees in their own country exposes a major fault line in India's "secular" political culture. 

Serious problems created by the apparatus and mindset nurturing the Nehruvian secularism like the absurdity of Waqf, Article 370, and various anomalies in our body politic always found a place in his writings. 

The single thread that runs throughout his survey of our times is the dithering approach of the Indian state to counter the ever-increasing menace posed by Islamic fundamentalism and terrorism. How Britain, once a master of a global empire has succumbed to that nefarious design has been brought out clearly. His familiarity with the British Newspaper Library at Colindale, London, provides him with the necessary insight into the working of British social and political system. British "multi-culturalism" and Bharat's centuries of unsullied record of accommodation and acceptance are facing existential challenges from such forces. 

As a student of history, he bemoans as to why Indians have to suffer a distorted understanding of their past. He offers a clue as to how the academic discipline of historical studies and research can be corrected and urges countrymen to take the necessary lessons from history.
