My latest Mint column looks at the uncanny parallels between Canada's defeated PM Harper and India's PM Modi -- both loathed by their country's respective liberal intelligentsia and both competing with dynastic brokerage parties (Liberals and Congress).
Excellent column Vivek. I applaud your sense of balance and your deconstruction of the opportunism of the liberal elites in India; while bringing out the limitations of the Right. Yours is one of the very few newspaper columns I read as it is minus a hidden agenda, which is what most of the English language "liberal" media in India has been reduced to.
