Sri Lanka’s Crisis, India’s Concerns

Price hikes, food shortages, and power outages, have become a reality for Sri Lankans who battle the country's biggest economic collapse since its independence. With some already fleeing the island nation to seek refuge on Indian shores, could we be staring at a refugee crisis? We examine what has caused this upheaval and how India can act to regain its influence in the Sri Lanka. Our Host Dia Rekhi finds out from Dr. M. Ganeshamoorthy, Economist and Senior Lecturer at the University of Colombo and Akhil Bery, Director of South Asia Initiatives at the Asia Society Policy Institute.
