Koenraad Elst

Koenraad Elst ( born August 7, 1959 in Leuven ) is a Belgian author, sinologist and Indologist.

He studied Philosophy, Chinese Studies and Indo- Iranian Studies in Leuven. After a stay at the Banaras Hindu University, he published his first book on the Ayodhya conflict. In 1998 he received his PhD in Leuven. He was in the 1990s a well-known author, among other Indian politics and history. His views are classified by a large part of the academic research on India, however, as particularly problematic.
