This excellent piece by @harikrishnan_91 is part of a special issue co-edoted by Kenneth Bo Nielsen and I on Anti Christian violence in India for Commonwealth and Comparative Politics. Stay tuned for more very soon. Until then Hari's piece is available open access.
New (Open Access) work! Wrote about how a "sacred geography" is shaped through sites, routes and neighbourhoods, and how one can read the recent outreach by Kerala BJP leaders to the Christian community. Thanks @SudhirSelvaraj @K_Bo_Nielsen @AW1010
