This week on #NLHafta, Newslaundry’s Abhinandan Sekhri, Manisha Pande and Anand Vardhan are joined by Govindraj Ethiraj, the founder of IndiaSpend and BOOM.

The conversation begins with the #floods in Bihar and Assam. While these usually dominate headlines every year, this year there’s been very little attention from the mainstream media. The panel then discusses news reports on India’s GDP growth, job losses during the pandemic, and industries shutting down.

On the Modi government’s revamp of #JallianwalaBagh and the criticism that followed, the panel talks about the need to learn the difference between renovation and preservation. They also talk about the Karnal sub-divisional magistrate’s order to lathicharge farmers and the kind of power wielded by bureaucrats.
