2024 is the year of elections and already hundreds of millions of people around the world have been to the polls. A few months ago The Briefing Room looked ahead to elections in South Africa and India. Both have since delivered shocks to their ruling parties which failed to win parliamentary majorities. So why did the main parties in both countries do worse than expected? And what does this mean for the governments they’ve formed and the immediate future of both South Africa and India?

Guests:

David Everatt, Professor at the Wits School of Governance in Johannesburg

Dr Ayesha Omar, British Academy international fellow at SOAS.

Rohan Venkat, editor of the “India Inside Out” newsletter

Louise Tillin, Professor of Politics in the India Institute at King's College London.

Produced by: Kirsteen Knight and Caroline Bayley Edited by: Richard Vadon Sound engineer: Rod Farquhar Production co-ordinator: Gemma Ashman
