Modi's India on the world stage

Modi's India on the world stage

Is India a US ally? Based on the pomp and circumstance surrounding Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s state visit to Washington in June, the answer seems obvious, right? They love us! We love them! End of story. Right? Well ... it’s complicated. India’s government is not ready to hitch its star to the American wagon, and the US has made it somewhat clear that it’s not a fan of India’s friendly ties to Russia and Iran. Add to that increasing international scrutiny of India’s eroding democratic norms, press freedom crackdowns, and religious persecutions, and the question becomes murkier still: Is India a US ally? Ian's guest this week will do her best to answer that question and more. Barkha Dutt is an award-winning Indian broadcast journalist and anchor with more than two decades of reporting experience.
