“Compelling biography of India’s.. digital public infrastructure”…. “simply unmissable” .. “charmingly open hearted good read”… says this @FinancialXpress review of India’s Techade Online link: financialexpress.com/lifestyle/numb…

Thought @nalinmehta's book was crisp, well-researched & steeped in realpolitik—that last bit is often missing in a lot of critiques of the current government. For those seeking BJP's political defeat, data-driven analyses such as these are critical to understanding why it wins.

'A quiet revolution is underway in India..Mr Mehta's book helped me understand why #UPI, for the first time in history..enabled an Indian tech innovation to be a winner' says @ajitbalakrish CEO @realrediff in a thoughtful review of India's Techade @bsindiahttps://bit.ly/455LXNU

@nalinmehta @AshokaUniv @TCPD_Ashoka @TheNewBJP @BJP4India @news18dotcom Great work @nalinmehta #MehtaSinghIndex rocks. #TheNewBJP is a very compelling book

@nalinmehta @AshokaUniv @TCPD_Ashoka @TheNewBJP @BJP4India @news18dotcom @CNNnews18 @sanjeevrsingh @JBhattacharji @karthikavk @WestlandBooks @UPESDehradun @SOMMatUPES Comment is free but facts are sacred, proved once again. Congratulations for the win, on sheer merit. Thorough research and sound arguments have no substitute. Well done, Nalin.

A lot of ppl asked,so a note for record on @AshokaUniv @TCPD_Ashoka debate👇 1. A year ago new caste data in @TheNewBJP found significant flaws in the Centre’s caste data Re @BJP4India & OBCs. This debate unfolded on @news18dotcom My 1st piece on this👇 news18.com/news/opinion/h…

I have often wondered if the BJP wins by mobilizing SC/OBC votes. There is a fair amount of data I suppose (open to interpretation) that may support this explanation.

In UP it was a non-Yadav OBC mobilisation .. and to a lesser extent a non-Jatav Dalit mobilisation … that provided the ballast - among other things @DrAyeshaRay … in 2014, 2019 and 2022 as well

@SandipGhose @nalinmehta I read Mr Mehta’s book The New BJP. The book has huge amount of data, charts. He is a thorough data scientist and hence the pseudo professors of Ashoka were bound to get exposed when he started digging. 👏👏
