Hindutva Profiles: Vikram Sampat
Sampat is considered by the Hindu far-right as someone who is putting forth an accurate ‘indic version’ of India’s past. Sampat is invited to platforms that eulogize Hindu supremacy and propagate the idea of exclusive Hindu polity (Hindu Rashtra), like The Sangam Talks, The Jaipur Dialogues, and others.

History in the Service of Hindutva
Srinath Raghavan reviews Vinayak Chaturvedi's 'Hindutva and Violence: V.D. Savarkar and the Politics of History'.
For Savarkar, history was a critical tool in a war to protect the Hindu nation. A new book examines the relationship between history and politics in Savarkar's thought and braids together the past and the present.
