“This book is one of the finest attempts to synthesize theoretical approaches and empirical evidence to explain the notion of secularism, the anxieties we face today in religious coexistence and the threat that the Hindu Right poses to India's social fabric and to the country's political structure.”
“A worthy addition… which is substantiated by both primary and secondary sources, and has a clearly stated conclusion.”
“The book has valuable case studies of the RSS’ relief efforts in Odisha… The author’s scholarly approach successfully establishes how humanitarism opens up the political space and opportunities that RSS used successfully.”
