In this episode, we have Aakar Patel, former executive director of Amnesty International India, an author of several books, including the latest 'Price of the Modi Years'. We discuss his personal interactions with the Supreme Leader during his Guj days, his great ability to absorb information across disciplines (masala kya hai?) and the way his tenure has shaped the nation. Also, Aakar gives his take on how he views nationalism as an idea.
