I used to hear often about how friendships are deteriorating and how India's vast political divides are causing societal disintegration. In ‘India 2030’, Sandipan Deb, as part of the volume of 20 essays, predicts how ideology and technology will widen political polarisation over the next decade.

I am currently the victim of a friendship that lasted more than 40 years until it broke up over a political disagreement. During a conversation in March 2024, I strongly (or maybe brutally!) condemned the political party that this person actively supported. They wanted to talk to me because they were really upset. Feelings were running high. I was in the wrong kind of mood, too. This will never be discussed at this time. My friend passed away last week before I could make amends with them.

Some regrets, such as this, will be with me forever.
