    The chapter traces the changes both in Indian political system and political thinking coinciding with the fall of the Soviet Bloc in early 1990s. The transformation of the framework of class dominance, accompanied with emancipation of the backward classes and castes, altered the relation between the domains of civil and political societies in India. This revolutionary transformation led not only to the emergence of the new distinctive class culture among the urban middle classes, but even tilted the dominant political discourse towards seemingly paradoxical alliance of economic neo-liberalism and religious and cultural nationalism, articulated in the recent electoral successes of Narendra Modi’s BJP. With regards to these conditions, can we revive the Gramscian concept of passive revolution, scrapped by Sudipta Kaviraj in his classic essay almost thirty years ago?
