  • Dr. Sneh Bhargava on Indira Gandhi’s Final Hours
    2025/07/14
    Dr. Sneh Bhargava, AIIMS Delhi’s first and still only woman director, shares her vivid memories of October 31, 1984: the day Prime Minister Indira Gandhi was shot and rushed into AIIMS while Dr. Bhargava’s appointment was being confirmed. In this podcast, Dr. Bhargava describes the chaos in the casualty ward, the desperate medical efforts to revive Mrs. Gandhi, and the political pressures that followed. She also reflects on her trailblazing career in radiology, her fight for modernising the department, and her unwavering stand against political interference. Now 95, Dr. Bhargava has released her memoir The Woman Who Ran AIIMS, revisiting the day India’s history changed, and her role in leading India’s top medical institution through its darkest hours.

  • Ira Mukhoty on the history of the Awadh empire
    2024/08/28
    The book brings in granular detail about the Awadh Nawabs, their political history, culture and their struggle with the British. It also captures the echoes of the French and English rivalry in the Indian courts, chronicling the various French men who worked in Awadh, Delhi and Mysore. Equally it is a story of two powerful women- Nawab Begum and Bahu Begum, who assert their agency both in laying down the foundation of the Awadh realm and also help in holding it up. Host: Sobhana K. Nair Edited by Sharmada Venkatsubramanian.

  • Joseph Stiglitz on the role of government in the economy
    2024/08/19
    In the 20th century, free market economists such as Milton Friedman and Friedrich Hayek argued that a limited government that allows markets to flourish can lead a country down the road to economic prosperity. But in his latest book "The Road to Freedom: Economics and the Good Society", American economist and 2001 Nobel Prize winner Joseph Stiglitz argues that we should not place too much faith in markets and increase the role of the government to uphold the common good. Host: Prashanth Perumal Edited by Jude Francis Weston
