Is the Hindi heartland becoming India’s Hindu heartland? ft Ghazala Wahab
Every election season, attention turns to India’s Hindi heartland, a region central to the country’s politics and identity. It has produced most of India’s prime ministers and a large share of its parliamentarians, while also witnessing some of the most intense communal clashes and temple–mosque disputes. Yet, it also remains the cradle of the Ganga-Jamuni tehzeeb, a culture rooted in coexistence and shared traditions.
This week on the show, host Sandip Roy speaks with Ghazala Wahab, whose new book, The Hindi Heartland, traces the region’s complex history and examines its continuing influence on India’s politics and society.
Produced by Shashank Bhargava Edited and mixed by Suresh Pawar
