Our two consulting editors, Anand Ranganathan and Kishalay Bhattacharjee, join the Hafta panel this week. In Delhi, the big question is, where does the AAP-led government stand after Delhi High Court rooted for Lt. Governor Najeeb Jung over Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal? Madhu Trehan has some provocative ideas about rape, when she points to sexual frustration as its source. Should the fringe be taken seriously? What happened in Kokrajhar, Assam, where the security forces opened fire in the middle of a market area in broad daylight? Hear Anand's take on Outlook's cover story on 'Operation Beti Uthao'. There's all this and more as Madhu, Anand, Kishalay along with Manisha Pande, Deepanjana Pal & Abhinandan Sekhri discuss this week's hot topics. Bonus: A song dedicated to Kejriwal, on behalf of Jung. For reference links, Please visit: http://www.newslaundry.com/2016/08/06/hafta-79-should-the-fringe-be-taken-seriously/
