On India's election and a blow for the BJP.

Esteemed writer and social activist Achin Vanaik is back on Bungacast to unpick India's monumental, seven-week-long electoral process in which over 600m people took part.

  • How did the ruling Hindu nationalist BJP lose its majority?

  • Is there really a cult of personality around Modi?

  • How does the BJP differ in important ways from Western 'national conservatives'?

  • Does the BJP losing seats reflect a loss of support for Hindutva ideology?

  • Modi claims India will reach developed economy status by 2047. Is this true?

  • How bad are problems of under- and un-employment, especially for the youth?

  • What is the nature of India's "crony oligarchy"?

  • How does the National Population Register threaten to divest people of citizenship?

  • How does the BJP see Israel as an example for itself?
