Professor Sudha Pai
Former Professor of Political ScienceJawaharlal Nehru University
As five phases of polling have concluded in the 2024 General Elections in India, we have seen a plethora of issues being talked about. From welfare and development to accusations of minority appeasement, debates on caste census, wealth redistribution, inheritance tax, unemployment, and Hindutva, this election seems to lack a pan-India narrative, unlike the ones in 2014 and 2019. In this episode of South Asia Chat, Mr Raghaw Khattri, Research Analyst, ISAS, is in conversation with Professor Sudha Pai, former Professor of Political Science at Jawaharlal Nehru University to discuss the nature of the election campaign and to look ahead.
