Pradeep Gupta, India’s top psephologist and the founder of Axis My India, discusses everything regarding winning elections and maintaining a hold on power for the next one. With expert insight and an understanding into the psyche of the common Indians as they make their decision on their leader, this is a must-read for everyone who wants to be well informed about election processes in India.
