The Modi model: Can India’s democracy keep up with its growing clout?

THE DEBATE © FRANCE 24

Which way for India and its democracy? As Hindu nationalist Prime Minister Narendra Modi welcomes the world for the G20 summit, he’s basking in the glow of a decade of development. But at what cost? From poverty reduction and digitalisation to bitter identity politics and curbs on civil liberties, François Picard’s panel offers differing perspectives on a pivotal moment for both the nation and the model it represents for the rest of the world.

Produced by Douglas Dutton, Imen Mellaz, Carlos Munoz, Didier Oustrie, Charles Wente and Alessandro Xenos.
