Event Description : EXHIBITION "Swiftian Satire" An Art Show of Rajinder Puri’s cartoons

Rajinder Puri’s cartoons are in the ‘whiplash satire’ tradition of cartooning that grew in the West immediately after the end of World War II in 1945. Till Puri came along cartoons in the English Language Press were fairly gentle in their satire but Puri’s sharp, acerbic cartoons reminded newspaper readers that their elected representatives in the Legislative Assemblies and Parliament, regardless of their Party affiliations, were a shifty lot whose activities had to be closely monitored
