Modern India

This is the India of right now — the one you live in, argue about, and read the news over. This section leaves the history books and looks at the present: the elections and the politics, the price of onions and the hunt for a government job, the protests that fill the streets, the schemes that promise a lot and reach the doorstep as less, the old questions of caste and fairness in a new century. Written straight down the middle — what happened, who's angry, what each side says — this is where Curious Indian turns from the past to the citizen's life today.
