  • Delimitation concerns, athlete sponsorships, and Bihar's first BJP CM
    Apr 16 2026
    First, we talk to The Indian Express' Vikas Pathak about the three bills that were circulated by the centre, which will pave the way for a fresh round of delimitation. The exercise could increase the strength of the Lok Sabha, while bringing into effect one third reservation for women. Vikas shares the concerns that have been raised against the exercise, especially by the Southern states.

    Next, we talk to The Indian Express' Amaal Sheikh about a circular that was released by the Athletics Federation of India, which said that athletes will have to inform the AFI about their sponsorships and the contracts that they sign with regards to the same. Amaal shares more about the circular and how it has been receiving backlash. (13:14)

    Lastly, we talk about Nitish Kumar resigning from the post of Bihar's CM and paving the way for BJP's Samrat Choudhary. (19:07)

  • Sabarimala case review, IMD predicts weak monsoon, and Stalin's warning
    Apr 15 2026
    First, we speak to The Indian Express’ Apurva Vishwanath about the Sabarimala Temple Entry case, as a nine-judge bench of the Supreme Court re-examines the landmark ruling that allowed women of all ages to enter the temple, and the larger constitutional questions around faith, equality, and judicial intervention.

    Next, we talk to The Indian Express’ Amitabh Sinha about why this year’s monsoon forecast is raising concerns, with the India Meteorological Department predicting below-normal rainfall and warning of possible disruptions linked to El Niño. (14:00)

    And in the end, we look at how M. K. Stalin has escalated his opposition to the Centre’s proposed delimitation exercise, framing it as a question of federal balance and political representation. (24:15)
