On The Buck Stops Here, historian and author Ramachandra Guha talks about "curb on freedom of expression" under the Modi Government, Nitish Kumar's "colossal blunder", identity politics and his new book 'Democrats and Dissenters'. Terming Modi Government "most anti-intellectual India has ever had", Ramachandra Guha says there has been a steady increase in attacks on intellectuals and writers are being assassinated. Mr Guha also calls the JDU-RJD alliance in Bihar a 'Faustian bargain' by Nitish Kumar ahead of polls, adding he is paying the price for the gamble he made by joining hands with Lalu ahead of polls.
