Ep. 117: The Future of Indian States - a podcast by IVM Podcasts

The States Reorganisation Act came into effect 63 years ago to this day, on November 1, 1956. India's states as we know them started taking their shape then. Many states like Karnataka, Kerala, West Bengal and others celebrate this as a State Formation Day or a 'Rajyotsava' Day.

How have Indian states fared since they were formed, and how should they think of themselves in the coming decades? Can state governments in India rise to meet the expectations of its residents? Can state residents demand more from their elected state leaders?

Pranay Kotasthane returns to The Pragati Podcast to talk about the future of Indian states.

The Pragati Podcast is a weekly talk-show on public policy, economics and international relations hosted by Pavan Srinath. Pranay Kotasthane is the Head of Policy Research at the Takshashila Institution and hosts the Puliyabaazi Hindi Podcast.
