  • Revisiting forgotten struggles for freedom in India

    Revisiting forgotten struggles for freedom in India
    2025/08/15
    On India’s 79th Independence Day, we spotlight stories often left out of the mainstream narrative — ones that reveal how the vision for a new India was never uniform. From young Indians in Britain rallying against colonial rule, to fierce debates over caste and representation, to the struggles of French and Portuguese territories that remained under foreign control long after 1947. These are stories of competing ideals, unfinished battles, and the diverse paths different regions and communities took toward independence, reminding us that liberation meant different things to different people.

    Guest: Professor Arup K. Chatterjee (OP Jindal Global University), The Indian Express' Nikita Mohta and Adrija Roychowdhury.

    Crackdown on pigeon feeding, calls for bull fighting, and cow vigilantism
    2025/08/14
    First, we talk to The Indian Express’ Alind Chauhan about Mumbai’s decision to stop pigeon feeding at public Kabutarkhanas and the health risks linked to pigeon droppings, and why the move has sparked resistance from the Jain community and animal rights activists.

    Next, we head to Goa, where The Indian Express’ Pavneet Singh Chhada explains the push for legalisation of bull fighting, locally known as dhirio, its cultural roots of this practice, and why enforcement has failed to stop it from continuing in secret. (16:17)

    And in the end, we look at a protest in Maharashtra, where members of the Qureshi community have gone on strike over alleged harassment by cow vigilantes. (25:18)

    SC's stray dogs order, National Sports Governance act, and more 'vote fraud'
    2025/08/13
    First, we talk to The Indian Express' Mallica Joshi and Vineet Bhalla about the Supreme Court's recent order where it has directed municipal authorities to pick up and house all stray dogs in Delhi and parts of the National Capital Region in dedicated shelters, and to do it within just eight weeks.

    Next, we talk to The Indian Express' Mihir Vasavda about the National Sports Governance Act, which was passed by both the houses of the parliament this week. Mihir shares how the act aims to overhaul how various sports federations function and proposes the setting up of a tribunal which will handle a wide range of disputes. (13:12)
