Historian retraces 5,000 years of Indian history

On Access Asia this week, we speak to historian Audrey Truschke, whose new book covers 5,000 years of history on the Subcontinent. She tells us how she remains committed to historical truth, saying: “I will not be swayed by modern politics, modern pressures, no matter how extreme they are.” We also cover how Afghans have been left in limbo, with the latest deportation drive from Iran underway.
