Thumbnails from four Nayadrishti Podcast episodes, on Kerala's debt, children and social media, the 1991 reforms and Kerala's electricity crisis

A weekly Malayalam podcast on policy, economics and society, from Kerala's economy and power crisis to the 1991 reforms.

Why

Not everyone has time to sit down with a policy article, and most policy conversations still happen in English. The podcast brings the ideas behind Nayadrishti to people in Malayalam, in an easy, conversational form.

What it is

A new episode every week on YouTube, in Malayalam. We take one question and talk it through: what the evidence says, where the trade-offs are, and what it means for Kerala and India. Recent episodes include:

  • Evaluating Kerala’s economy
  • Kerala’s electricity crisis
  • India’s unemployment problem
  • The 1991 reforms
  • Children and social media
  • Migration and open borders
  • Our dream policies

We also answer questions sent in by listeners, and take the occasional detour into history and travel.

Who it’s for

Anyone curious about how policy shapes everyday life: students, working professionals, and people who would never pick up a policy report.
