Lauren Layfield introduces The Modi Raj on the podcast recommendation podcast - Your Next Podcast. Narendra Modi may well be the most popular politician on the planet. India’s prime minister is eyeing a third term atop the world’s biggest democracy. A tea-seller’s son, Mr Modi began life an outsider. The man behind the political phenomenon remains hard to fathom. India has become an economic powerhouse during his ten years in charge. But he’s also the frontman for a chauvinistic Hindu nationalist dogma. Can Mr Modi continue to balance both parts of his agenda and finish the job of turning India into a superpower? The Economist’s Avantika Chilkoti finds out what makes him tick. You can follow The Modi Raj on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music and listen to the whole series on Economist Podcasts+
