Show notes

Recent communal violence erupted in Nagpur, India, in March 2025, triggered by Hindu nationalist demands to demolish a Mughal emperor's tomb. Protests escalated quickly due to misinformation, leading to arson, stone-pelting, and numerous injuries and arrests, prompting a citywide curfew. Political reactions have been sharp, with the government alleging a conspiracy and the opposition criticizing their handling of the unrest. Social media played a significant role in spreading inflammatory content, resulting in arrests and a crackdown on online hate speech, highlighting the fragile state of communal harmony and raising concerns about governance and historical narratives.
