Delhi hotel fire, Rajkot labour room video case, and cracks in INDIA bloc
Published 7 hours ago
Description
First, we speak to The Indian Express’ Pragynesh about the deadly fire at a bed-and-breakfast in Delhi’s Hauz Rani that killed 21 people, and how the tragedy has exposed alleged fire safety violations, illegal construction, and regulatory failures across the city’s guesthouse sector.
Next, we talk to The Indian Express’ Brendan Dabhi about the Rajkot maternity hospital CCTV case, where footage of female patients was allegedly recorded and sold online, leading to multiple arrests and the rare application of cyberterrorism charges. (15:25)
And in the end, we look at growing strains within the INDIA bloc ahead of a key meeting in Delhi, with the DMK staying away amid tensions over Congress’s alliance decisions in Tamil Nadu and disagreements among several opposition partners. (27:10)
