As election season arrives in India, we thought this was a good time to revisit our conversation about understanding the Indian voter. Listen in to this week’s Puliyabaazi as Rahul Verma, Fellow at Centre for Policy Research, joins us to discuss the changing trends in Indian elections. 

क्या भारतीय वोटर आर्थिक मुद्दे पर बटा है? क्या भारत में राजनैतिक ध्रुवीकरण बढ़ा है? भारत में चुनाव की चर्चा झोर पकड़ रही है, तो हमने सोचा क्यों न इस विषय पर एक विशेषज्ञ से ही बात की जाय। सुनिए इस हफ़्ते पुलियाबाज़ी पर चुनाव पर चर्चा राहुल वर्मा के साथ। 

About the Guest:

He has a PhD in Political Science from the University of California, Berkeley. He is a regular columnist for various news platforms and has published papers in many academic journals. His research interests include voting behaviour, party politics, and political representation. His book co-authored with Pradeep Chhibber, Ideology and Identity: The Changing Party Systems of India, develops a new approach to defining the contours of what constitutes an ideology in multi-ethnic countries such as India.

Ideology and Identity: The Changing Party Systems of India, Pradeep K. Chhibber and Rahul Verma



Economic Ideology in Indian Politics: Why Do Elite and Mass Politics Differ?



Age and Party Choice: Generational Shift in India



Political fissures alive, no consensus in sight



Congress, BRS knew their MLAs were unpopular—how incumbents are the new electoral paradox



*****   related Puliyabaazi   *****


हमारी राजनीती आख़िर ऐसी क्यों है? What Matters for Indian Voters?
क्या भारत की निर्वाचन प्रणाली बदलनी चाहिए? Would Proportional Representation Work in India?
एक सवाल, कई जवाब: एक देश-एक चुनाव के बारे में कैसे सोचा जाए? How to think about One Nation-One Election?
