I read Guha's biography of Verrier Elwin years ago. Elwin was a British anthropologist who chose to become Indian (the first European after 1947) and who worked to lift up the Indigenous peoples of the Northeast. Highly recommended.

I'm saddened but not surprised that he would be caught up in the latest problems in the Northeast. When you can fix the present, you blame the past.
