Sri Lanka & India: Ancient Connections, Modern Solutions

What connects the Ramayana, deep-sea ports, brain drain, and the startup boom in South Asia?

In this special 11th episode of Question Scoop, we welcome Maheel Bandara, Director of Bharat-Lanka Cooperation, to explore how Sri Lankans and Indians can drive change and create impact together by doing something just as simple as starting the conversation .

Topics we unpack:

Shared history, from epics to colonial legacy

1. LTTE, the Indian Peacekeeping Force & post-conflict rebuilding

2. Brain drain & startup culture among youth

3. Sri Lanka’s strategic ports and their role in global trade

4. Ayurvedic tourism, crisis recovery, and cultural revival

5. How the Global South can rise through youth dialogue and collaboration

This is not just a conversation—it's a movement.

Young minds of India & Sri Lanka — tune in, speak up, and shape a united future.

Follow & share if you believe in a stronger Global South.
