From his perch as Governor of the western Indian coastal State of Goa, P.S. Sreedharan Pillai takes full advantage of his bully pulpit, speaking about, and disseminating his passion for reading and literature.
A prodigious writer, he has authored more than 200 books which traverse an astonishing range of subjects – from history, politics, law to poetry and economy, being possibly the only personage in the Indian political scene with so many literary credits under his name.
Mr. Pillai firmly abides by his maxim that “Art and literature can unite people” and has utilised his love of literature to achieving this object, whether as a respected attorney, as a former two-time State president of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), or as Governor of first Mizoram and now Goa.
