POTD – Sir Mark Tully

Who was in conversation with Malachi O’Doherty in the last of a series of talks as part of Malachi’s writer in residence at Queens University. It surprised me to hear that Sir Mark has been in India since 1965(the year i was born) He came across as a thoroughly decent and well educated man with a deep understanding of India.
