About the programme:
Do people in India, Pakistan and Bangladesh still share old cultural & civilisational ties? Have they been able to bury the past and move ahead? The Centre for Policy Research (CPR) and the CVoter Foundation conducted a survey of citizens in the three countries in 2022. At the panel discussion, the distinguished speakers will discuss the report that compares the responses of citizens in three countries on multiple components: their opinion on partition, economic development and social progress, the position of women, political processes, populist sentiments, and trust in democracy and institutions.
