In this episode of South Asia Chat, Mr Raghaw Khattri, Research Analyst, ISAS, is in conversation with Dr Ronojoy Sen, Senior Research Fellow, and Research Lead of the Politics, Society and Governance cluster at ISAS, to discuss the political landscape in India ahead of the general elections. With Prime Minister Narendra Modi's assertion of the BJP winning 370 seats, the discussion probes the party's anticipated gains in specific regions and its challenges in South India. Analysis extends to the Congress' seat-sharing alliances in North India, exploring the potential impact of collaborations with the Samajwadi Party, Aam Aadmi Party, and others. The discussion also analyses the trend of opposition leaders joining the BJP and the risk of complacency in BJP’s bid for a third term.
