Spring 2020 Podcast with Roshan Kishore

Contrary to popular perception, Rajasthan is a diverse state which features everything from well irrigated agricultural regions to deserts, large urban centres, to a significant tribal belt along the border with Gujarat. It was also the state where it was possibly the "Modi wave" began in 2013 leading to the eventual clean sweep of the State by the Bharatiya Janata Party in the 2014 elections. In that context, what should we make of the Congress' victory in the Vidhan Sabha elections in 2018? Will the State vote in the same manner in the Centre as it did for the State or are their reasons to believe that the vote will be different this time? How do local political economies play into the electoral calculus? We are joined by Roshan Kishore, Data &amp; Political Economy Editor at Hindustan Times to look at what the data tells us about the State and what we might expect going ahead.
