This week, host Basant Kumar is joined by IndiaSpend’s principal correspondent Ranvijay Singh and Newslaundry’s Tanishka Sodhi.
Ranvijay explains his report on Uttar Pradesh’s initiatives to protect cows, and how caretakers of the cattle in reality receive inadequate funds to run shelters, leading to the animals being abandoned. “Dying cows is more like a routine now,” he says, “and not news.”
The conversation shifts to Tanishka’s report on Zee News chief Sudhir Chaudhary being invited to speak at an event in Abu Dhabi, and the controversy that followed. Tanishka explained that some sections, including UAE princess Hend Al Qassimi, found “Sudhir’s coverage Islamophobic and inciting communal tension on many levels”. She also talked about her coverage of the Gurugram namaz issue.
This and a lot more as they talk about what made news, what didn’t, and what shouldn’t have.
Tune in.
