Post Haste

Post Haste offers a tour d’horizon of what constitutes Incredible India that is Bharat. This is both a modern nationstate in the making (or a states-nation or commonwealth of states as some would argue) and an ancient civilizational concept that has bound together anamazing heterogeneity of peoples, races, faiths, histories and cultures.Far too many contemporary Indians know too little of this collective past, which remains perfunctorily told and understood as oral traditions embedded in folklore, fable and festivals have faded. And yet a new India is being born with hope but not without trauma as the nation undergoes a multiplicity of transitions in a story captured by its postal stamps.
