In hyper-polarised times, it can be hazardous to chronicle contemporary history or learn from its mistakes. Not surprisingly then, a Netflix series titled IC 814: The Kandahar Hijack has got the ruling BJP, particularly its social media handles, all hot and bothered.
The series tells the story of the infamous hijack of the Indian Airlines plane from Kathmandu to Delhi on 24 December 1999 and the subsequent eight-day ordeal before the plane was finally set free.
