Abstract
This article examines the political economy of Narendra Modi's ascent to power, focusing on the pivotal role played by Indian big capital in the transition from Indian National Congress to Bharatiya Janata Party governance. It argues that the defection of leading corporate actors from the former party to the latter was not merely a political realignment but a structural shift in India's post-liberalization regime. Since Modi's election, neoliberal reforms have accelerated, deepening the state's alignment with capital while marginalizing the political influence of labor. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
