For the latest episode of SparX, we are joined by Neelkanth Mishra, Economic advisor to the Government of India, Chairman of UIDAI, and Chief Economist at Axis Bank. In this episode, Neelkanth dives into the unraveling of the post-WWII global order and what might replace it. From the fading influence of institutions like the UN, WHO, and NATO to the rise of new groupings like G20, BRICS, and QUAD, we explore why global power is shifting and what it means for countries like India.

We also examine the implications of US-China tensions, Europe’s struggle to rebuild military strength, and the global apathy toward conflicts like Russia-Ukraine and Israel-Gaza. If you're curious about where the world is headed, this conversation offers deep insights and bold perspectives.
