Editor’s note: this is a real policy research report, not a documentary film, and is filed here under Articles.

The most substantial real source on this subject is “India, Israel and the Jewish People”, a policy paper by Shalom Salomon Wald and Arielle Kandel published by the Jewish People Policy Institute (JPPI). It surveys the historical connection between India and the Jewish people, from the ancient arrival of Jewish traders and refugees through to the modern India-Israel relationship.
