In exam for pharmacists in UP, 18 students write only Jai Shri Ram, get 50%. 2 professors later suspended. It is laughable, yes, but reveals the kind of idiocy & radicalisation that the BJP has engineered livemint.com/news/india/up-…
Ideas of India: 2024 Campaign ? @PalshikarSuhas highlights the differences b/w the Congress and BJP campaign - the two registers are speaking about two very different ideas of India, and the contrast has become sharper. theindiaforum.in/politics/campa…
On this week #GrandTamasha, @maitreesh joins me to talk about poverty and inequality trends in India. While we did not plan it this way, I suppose it's good timing given the raging debate about an inheritance tax: grand-tamasha.simplecast.com/episodes/the-g…

My essay in @ForeignAffairs on how growing public and elite nationalism in rising powers can produce self-defeating foreign policy risks. This was as true of the United States in the 19th century as it is of India today. foreignaffairs.com/india/hindu-na…

A time of transition is an opportunity for reflection. What does it mean to work on “policy” , be policy relevant in a to pursue the goal of “evidence”-based policy-making when the space for contestation and debate over ideas is shrinking? deccanherald.com/opinion/on-evi…

Excellent stuff. The core economic complaint today is about widening gap between the haves and have nots. So why isn’t it translating to politics?

"Lured by what technology can offer in terms of DBT, welfare is reframing itself as a gift offered by the party leader, almost as an exchange of loyalty rather than a fundamental right that ought to frame the terms of the social contract..." - @AiyarYamini

Wow—this is a February surprise.
Here’s what @AiyarYamini says about @IndrajitRoyYork’s important new book ‘Audacious Hope’. Now available at bookstores and online. Buy your copy today. @uniyorkpolitics @UniOfYork
“What makes this truly frightening is that the gap between expressions of verbal intolerance and violence is a very thin one” brave piece by @AiyarYamini, given the kind of vitriol she is subject to. Needs to be said loudly tht those who’re not secular r the real anti-nationals.
"We must defend secularism. In doing so, we defend India. We become genuine nationalists, not petty perpetuators of hate and bigotry." In defence of secularism in a time of majoritarian triumphalism. deccanherald.com/opinion/in-def…
