So, has the Guardian done PM Modi a favour? Or has it put India "into trouble"?There's a paradox: India wants to embrace The Guardian's story politically but deny it diplomatically. Has India admitted to carrying out killings in Pakistan?Host Dev Goswami and defence expert Shiv Aroor decode.**Revisit our earlier episode about mysterious deaths, possibly linked to an unidentified Indian hit squad here: Listen in!Produced by Anna PriyadarshiniSound mix by Sachin Dwivedi
