## Resource

First, we speak to The Indian Express’ Liz Mathew about the Congress high command naming V D Satheesan as Kerala’s next Chief Minister, and what his elevation reveals about the party’s internal politics and future strategy. Next, we talk to The Indian Express’ Aditi Raja about the new Sociology curriculum at MS University in Vadodara, which includes modules on Modi Tattva, RSS fieldwork, and Hindu sociology, and why it has sparked debate over politics in the classroom. (11:11) And in the end, we look at the case of a British-Indian doctor who spent four months stranded in India after a Look Out Circular linked to a Facebook post prevented him from leaving the country. (25:05) Hosted by Ichha Sharma Produced and written by Shashank Bhargava, Flora Swain and Ichha Sharma Edited and mixed by Suresh Pawar
