This week, it’s an all-Newslaundry panel as Akanksha Kumar is joined by Basant Kumar and Ayush Tiwari.

 

Basant kicks off the podcast by talking about the ongoing election season in Gujarat, the ground realities of the Gujarat model, unemployment, Narendra Modi’s image, and unkept promises such as those surrounding the sugar mill in Kodinar. He explains how the closing down of one mill has compelled farmers to grow less profitable crops as compared to sugarcane.

 

Ayush then details how the Yogi Adityanath government gave Republic TV a plot in Noida for a new studio, and how this land was leased during the Uttar Pradesh assembly election, on a day Arnab Goswami interviewed the chief minister in Ayodhya. He says the deal is not illegal but raises questions.

 

This and a lot more as they talk about what made news, what didn’t, and what shouldn’t have. 

Tune in.
