| Parliament Attack and Surveillance Raj | Interviewed | The Indian Parliament has gone through one of the worst periods in its history with the serial suspension of as many as 146 MPs in a matter of a few days. These suspensions were triggered by the vociferous demands from the MPs for an explanation from Prime Minister Narendra Modi and union Home Minister Amit Shah on the security lapses that led to the security breach in the parliament on December 13, 2023. The breach- which was characterised by sections of the media as the second attack on parliament- was carried out by a group of young people. Political Analyst, Economist and Social Activist Paranjoy Guha Thakurtha discussed this context with Venkitesh Ramakrishnan, Managing Editor, The AIDEM. In this freewheeling conversation, Guha Thakurtha, points out that the linkages between these developments and the Surveillance Raj being built up by the Modi Regime are grave. |
