Who deserves the credit? Abhijeet Dipke and the CJP or Sonam Wangchuk? What impact will this have on Prime Minister Modi’s image and confidence? And on Indian politics and next year’s state elections? Finally, is this a potential turning point? And how can we ensure history actually turns? My guest is the well-known and highly regarded journalist, author and Chairman of Amnesty India Aakar Patel.
