The UNCENSORED INDIAN HISTORY W/ Anuraag Saxena | AP Podcast 135 | Karl Marx | Gandhi | Bose

In Episode 135 of AP Podcast, host Aftab Puttoo is joined by Anuraag Saxena — author, heritage activist, and CEO of the E-Gaming Federation.

They explore why many Indians feel culturally inadequate, how colonial mindsets still shape national identity, and why the West — especially the USA — continues to be seen as aspirational.
