    Makarand R. Paranjape
    India’s global proximities derive in good measure from its struggle against British imperialism. In its efforts to become a nation, India turned modern in its own unusual way. At the heart of this metamorphosis was a 'colourful cosmopolitanism,' the unique manner in which India made the world its neighbourhood.
