Editor’s Note
The distinguishing feature of the post 2019 Modi government is the aggressive pursuit of the Hindutva communal agenda of the fascistic RSS. Among many other lethal features of this aggressive pursuit is the feverish unfolding of the neo-liberal reforms trajectory that has cemented a corporate-communal nexus. This trajectory has also strengthened India’s dependance on global finance capital, reducing India as a subordinate ally of US imperialism in global political, strategic and military spheres.

Misuse of History:
Assault on Democracy in India
India is today witnessing the cynical use of ‘history’ to destroy the very basis on which the Indian nation state was imagined by the nearly hundred year long Indian National Liberation Movement and the basis on which the democratic Indian republic was formed after winning independence from British colonial rule in 1947. The very survival of the Indian nation state, not only its character is at stake today.
