The Midway Battle: Modi's Roller Coaster Second Term

In 2019, the BJP came into power once again on the back of one of
the most significant electoral mandates in recent years. Since
then, the Narendra Modi-led government has seen a tumultuous few
years as they have implemented far-reaching legislative changes
including the Jammu and Kashmir Reorganisation Act, triple talaq,
the Citizenship (Amendment) Act as well as farming laws. These
laws, when implemented, caused widespread protests and upheaval
across the country.





While the country grappled with internal strife, it also faced
challenges from its neighbours in the form of one of the most
intense military stand-offs in decades after an unprovoked attack
by China's People's Liberation Army at Galwan as well as a global
pandemic. While the Modi government took swift steps to limit the
spread of the pandemic in 2020, the second wave of COVID-19 in
early 2021 hit the country hard, claiming thousands of lives.





Bringing a well-researched and nuanced understanding to Modi's
second term, The Midway Battle sheds light on the
sociopolitical issues facing India as it continues its struggle
against enemies both known and unknown, and puts into perspective
what lies ahead for the world's biggest democracy.
