In this powerful and provocative analysis, Anustup Basu argues that Hindutva reconfigures Hinduism into a political theology—not to liberate, but to control. Drawing on Carl Schmitt and postcolonial theory, the video explores how Hindutva converts a pluralist cultural tradition into an authoritarian state ideology. It questions whether Hindutva is about religion or about state power modeled on monotheistic absolutism, and stresses that understanding this ideological structure is crucial as India faces rising authoritarianism, highlighting the importance of sovereignty, identity, and control.
