In episode ten of South Central, hosts Dhanya Rajendran, Pooja Prasanna, and Leena Reghunath are joined by public policy professionals Tara Krishnaswamy and Tushar  Chakrabarthy, along with advocate Sandhya Raju who practises in the Kerala High Court.

In this episode, first we discuss whether the union government is messing the finances of comparatively richer southern states? Or are states responsible for their fiscal woes? The discussion later is on the sexual assault of a Dalit teen in Kerala that has shook the country. The teen has accused 58 men of raping her.

Tune in for an in-depth discussion.
