We analyze Modi’s politics since 2014 and the continuing weakness of pro-Western ideologies (whether of the Congress or Hindutva variety) when faced with revolutionary politics. https://podur.org/2023/02/28/aer-119-that-time-when-britain-killed-10-million-indian-people-with-amaresh-mishra/   Get the printed transcript of this episode here
