India is the world’s most populous country, with a median age of 28 and an emerging economic powerhouse. Whatever happens here is bound to have an impact on the future of business, climate change, jobs, geopolitics and much more around the world. And yet there is no singular reliable source where you can go to make sense of the country.
The India Briefing aims to fill this gap. Through crisp conversations and, sometimes debates, we will give a round up of everything you need to know to understand the politics, economy and culture in India - whether you are studying the country, investing in it, working there, or are just ‘India curious’.
Hosted by Mukulika Banerjee, political anthropologist at the LSE and writer of multiple books on Indian democracy and elections, and Pragya Tiwari, senior journalist and editor, with two decades of experience in Indian politics and policy, the podcast will marry academic rigor with journalistic precision.
