2 Must Listens, 1 Quiz: Bihar's SIR, China's Kill Switch Inside India, & The Narasimha Quiz

This Week In Swarajya Podcasts

Dear Listeners,

In the latest episode of 'What This Means', we discussed the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) in Bihar and what various parties are up to in the state ahead of the assembly elections. According to Adarsh Pandit, a political consultant from Bihar, in terms of narrative games, BJP is on the back foot but not because of SIR, but due to anti-incumbency heat.

He says, 'In Bihar, BJP’s main bug right now is that they have the message and the machine, but no messenger.' Listen to the full episode here.

The second story from 'What We Said' is equally important and interesting. China is targeting India’s critical infrastructure, like power grids, emergency networks, and digital infrastructure, not to disrupt today but to control the outcome of tomorrow’s conflict.

From fake news campaigns in Manipur to Chinese state-linked hackers deep inside our power grid, this is a chilling story of silent invasions. The enemy doesn’t need to cross borders. They’re already inside. How? We break it down here.

Take our weekend special quiz on Lord Narasimha. Here's one question from the quiz:

What boon did Hiranyakashipu receive that made him nearly invincible?

1) Immortality

2) Invincibility except in water

3) No death by man or beast

4) Control over all demons

Thank you for tuning in!
