This lecture is based on Rajdeep Sardesai’s new book 2024: The Election That Surprised India. The book brings to life the inside story of Indian politics and society. It will throw light on the reasons for one-sidedness of mainstream media narrative, failure of Modi led BJP’s drumbeat of achieving target of 400 seats and Rahul Gandhi led Congress staging an electoral comeback. It will deep dive into India’s most bruising and polarized political battle and the many stories that shaped an extraordinary election verdict.
