Chapter 2 delves into the primary actors and socio-historical events that have led to producing Hindu nationalism’s multiple political imaginaries and policy imperatives. It chronologically follows how Hindutva and discourses of economic development have interacted in post-Independence political regimes. I show how the BJP has been able to build multiple narratives, using both technocratic organisations and populist mobilisation, to gain several forms of legitimacy, many of which contradict one another. Scholars have written entire books on Hindutva’s ideological basis and its interaction with economic development. My intention is to give people an overview so they can appreciate how my specific research and argument fits into existing conversations and concerns. This chapter introduces how the BJP adopts two distinct forms of persuasion, making claims about the (sometimes magnificent, sometimes repugnant) past and the future to different degrees: (1) returning to an ancient, mythic, and strategically changing cultural unity; and (2) ‘cleaning up’ persisting economic and moral decadence in pursuit of invulnerable national glory.

Epic poems are amongst the first works of literature that survive, the earliest poems—like the Epic of Gilgamesh—likely part of oral traditions that were written down only after writing developed from the third millennium BCE.

It’s well established that reading fiction helps fuel empathy and allows us to connect better with those unlike us, thereby promoting inclusivity. Books are also an agency for escapism — they let us seek a transient refuge from the tangles of life. Escapist fiction opens the doors to other worlds and lets us be a part of them...
Literature has always been a gateway to imagination. It makes us live the lives of others and experience things we might not witness in our own lives. When we enter stories, we create worlds, sketch characters and sense emotions. We use language to transcend borders and travel the globe and beyond. Reading is our passport to everywhere. It is an exercise for the imagination. To surrender reading is a refusal to imagine, which in turn is a sacrifice of our creative abilities — the very essence of being human. suvratarora06@gmail.com
