This week on #NLHafta, Abhinandan Sekhri, Raman Kirpal, Manisha Pande and Mehraj D Lone of Newslaundry are joined by Chander Shekhar Luthra, seasoned sports journalist and secretary of the Press Club of India.

Talking about how #sportsjournalism in India has been reduced to access journalism, Chander rues the passing of a time when “there was space for everyone”. Today’s media platforms and their audiences, Chander argues, are not as receptive to serious discussions around sports and their administration.

Complaining that the #parliament has become dysfunctional, Abhinandan says the endless logjam and ruckus is revealing about what political leaders think of this central institution of democracy.
