Recently, Prime Minister, Christopher Luxon, met with India’s Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, in Delhi to discuss a variety of different topics. Notably, Modi alleged there has been ‘anti-India activities by some illegal elements’ in Aotearoa.
Many believe Modi’s statements refer to the Khalistan movement in Aotearoa; a movement aiming to establish an independent homeland for Sikhs in India.
More specifically, many believe Modi is referring to the Khalistan ‘referendum’ in Auckland in November last year.
News and Editorial Director, Joel, spoke to an activist with the Aotearoa Alliance of Progressive Indians, Sapna Samant, about these allegations by Modi and how she believes his criticisms are more to do with the anti-Hindutva, or anti-Hindu-nationalism, movement in Aotearoa.
They started off by asking her about the Khalistan movement in New Zealand.
Jonny chats to Amelia about her new album Soft Power, Taite Prize nomination, the forthcoming Fazerdaze tour of North America and the show at the Powerstation on 22 March. Whakarongo mai nei!
Mim Jensencame on Morning Glory to discuss her upcoming EP 'Shadow of a Gift.' They spoke about Jensen's recent performance opening for The Beths, the vulnerability of releasing her honest and raw music and the themes of her new EP.
The perfect cure for midweek blues! Jonny chats to Fazerdaze ahead of her show this weekend at the Powerstation, then there was the weekly Aural Emporium, and indie icon Kristin Hersh phones in to chat about her return to Aotearoa for her shows at The Vic and The Tuning Fork.
