India was not always a land of such constant communal clashes; the polarised hatred present in our world today finds its origins in our time under our British rulers. British’s communal policies, demands of minorities, and the reaction of the majority all give rise to communalism in India. Join us as we try to explore the origins of communal uprisings and the increase of differences in the country’s social fabric.

Listen to our 18th Episode, The Khilafat Movement.
