This week, host Basant Kumar is joined by Ranchi-based independent journalist Anand Dutta and Newslaundry’s Drishti Choudhary.

Anand talks about his IndiaSpend report for which he trekked for several hours in remote areas of Jharkhand to understand how it is like for vulnerable sections to access healthcare. Across India, people have to cover an average distance of 13.55 km to reach a community health centre, and the problem is not limited to Jharkhand.

Drishti, meanwhile, spoke about her reportage on the Delhi elections, including her video report on what voters feel in Asia’s largest unauthorised colony of Sangam Vihar.

Tune in.
