Enjoyed speaking to barkha dutt around my book #TheConscienceNetwork. We discussed #IndiraGandhi’s 11 unbroken years in office from 1966-1977 and Modi’s 11 from 2014-2025. Love the way Barkha builds up an argument and expands the discussion. Mojo Story youtube.com/live/fm1_Eh94B…

#OPINION | Vice presidents have openly spoken their mind in the past, too. But as a constitutional figurehead, Jagdeep Dhankhar’s regular contributions to political chatter crossed a line, writes Sugata Srinivasaraju. santwanabhattacharya newindianexpress.com/opinions/2025/…

My The New Indian Express column, today: “Dhankhar waded unprovoked into the issue of the basic structure doctrine. He argued for the supremacy of parliament, and said its amending powers could not be curtailed. He almost sounded like Indira Gandhi during the Emergency.”

The 1970s were a decade when to dream was treason. India's Gandhian innocence was finally stripped from her body politic. Sugata Srinivasaraju's #TheConscienceNetwork, a much better book, is less about Indira's Machiavellian politics and more a chronicle of the carriers of that innocence

When Rachel Carson presented her environmental classic, “Silent Spring,” to the New Yorker editor William Shawn in January, 1962, he responded, “You have made it literature, full of beauty and loveliness and depth of feeling.” #NewYorker100 nyer.cm/u1YT7C4

“The book is meticulously researched, nuanced and written with restrained elegance… For anyone who wants to understand the issues of democracy and dictatorship in India, this is a seminal book.” A heartwarming review of #TheConscienceNetwork in Business Standard by Aditi Phadnis.

#BookReview | The Conscience Network: A Chronicle of Resistance to a Dictatorship The element of equivalence between then and now is probed delicately but bravely by this book which revisits the Emergency and the resistance to it from a new angle, writes Aditi Phadnis.

read the book by Sugata Srinivasaraju, posting here the review again. should read if one gets time: I loved chapters 11 and 13, they were the most interesting to read. Thank you for the easy flow with which the book runs.
