Project Title:
East India Company 2.0: A New Empire of Inequality
Objective:
This book explores the striking economic parallels between the British colonial rule under the East India Company and India’s current economic landscape post-2014.

Through historical analysis, contemporary case studies, and immersive storytelling, the book provides a compelling narrative on how wealth concentration is shaping India’s future.
