Description
First, we speak to The Indian Express’ Naveed Iqbal about Jammu and Kashmir’s intensified anti-drug campaign and how the crackdown is expanding beyond arrests to measures such as passport cancellations and property demolitions.
Next, we talk to The Indian Express’ Ishika Gupta about Mumbai’s recent demolition drive in Garib Nagar, where hundreds of structures, including two mosques, were razed by railway authorities, triggering protests, clashes, and questions over rehabilitation. (11:11)
And in the end, we look at the alleged mass wedding scam in Madhya Pradesh’s Dewas district, where dozens of men arrived as grooms for a collective marriage ceremony, only to discover that the promised brides never existed. (23:50)
