Implosion: India’s Tryst with Reality
John Elliot
Revised and updated 2019 edition with an analysis of the Modi yearsIndia continues to punch below its weight, failing to achieve what it could and should be doing. It has the vast potential of a population of over a billion people, abundant natural resources and an ancient culture, yet it constantly disappoints admirers and validates the views of critics. These failings have generated a widespread clamour for a better India, which, in part, led to Narendra Modi being elected India's prime minister in 2014, with an agenda for change that could begin to reverse the years of drift.But, as John Elliott elaborates in the new preface to this 2019 edition of Implosion that traces Modi's rise and his 2014 election victory, and with a long new chapter examining the BJP government's performance, Modi was not able to do what was needed to fulfil his promise.
