Their work as anthropologists, sociologists, novelists, essayists, travel writers, and professors is impeccable, and they shoulder the responsibility of fostering global peace as ambassadors. The postmodern and postcolonial writers who raised the standard for international literature Salman Rushdie, Vikram Seth, Vikram Chandra, Sashi Tharoor, Arundhati Roy have been surpassed by them.
