Sab Mehnga Hone wala hai: Gold, Petrol, India's Economy & PM Modi | Abhijit Iyer Mitra | Supertalks 194

The Prime Minister of India just asked you to stop buying gold, skip foreign travel and save fuel. And if you think that's just an appeal — think again.

In this episode of Supertalks, Raghav sits down with Abhijit Iyer-Mitra, Senior Fellow at the Institute of Peace & Conflict Studies, Defence Economist, and one of India's sharpest geopolitical and economic minds. A regular columnist for the Economic Times & Business Standard, Abhijit has co-authored books on military reforms and Afghanistan and has been a visiting fellow at Sandia National Laboratories and the Stimson Centre, Washington D.C.

This is his third appearance on Supertalks — and his most urgent yet.

What we cover:

— Why PM Modi is urging Indians to stop buying gold, avoid foreign travel & save fuel

— Why petrol will rise to ₹125 per litre — and why Abhijit argues that's actually necessary

— How Indian Oil companies are bleeding ₹30,000 crores in losses to keep fuel prices stable

— Why suppressing prices today will hurt Indian consumers far harder tomorrow

— What inflation actually means for the everyday Indian consumer

— India's Strategic Petroleum Reserves — why we don't have them & why that's dangerous

— The falling Indian Rupee against the Dollar — the real reasons behind it

— How the West Asia war crisis is directly impacting India's economy

— What would trigger a World War — and why the US, Russia & China are all moving at once

— How China could advance towards India in the middle of a global conflict

Whether you're listening or watching, this is the most data-backed, no-filter conversation on India's economic and geopolitical reality right now.
