    What the emphasis on non-violence actually meant to Gandhi

    Mahatma Gandhi is known around the world as the apostle of non-violence, but what did his insistence on ahimsa actually mean for him?

    On the occasion of Gandhi Jayanti, we are deviating from our usual programming and revisiting a conversation that was originally featured on The Sandip Roy Show. In this episode, host Sandip talks to Jyotirmaya Sharma, professor of political science at the University of Hyderabad, about his book – Elusive Nonviolence: The Making and Unmaking of Gandhi’s Religion of Ahimsa.

Great content

A great podcast for Indian news. I like how it focuses on 2-3 topics only, and remains fact based, brief and mostly unbiased.
