Published 15 hours ago
Description
First, we speak to The Indian Express’ Pragynesh about the alleged gangrape of a 17-year-old at Delhi’s Aastha Kunj Park, the security gaps across the Capital’s green spaces, and why restricting women’s access cannot substitute for making public places safer.
Next, we speak to The Indian Express’ Vikas Pathak about the renewed debate over dividing Uttar Pradesh into four states, how such a reorganisation would work, and why it may not suit the BJP politically. (17:00)
And in the end, we look at a Supreme Court petition questioning Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar’s decision-making and seeking to invalidate the nationwide Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls. (25:50)
