Khan sir controversy, a road not built, and Modi becomes longest serving PM
About this episode
The episode discusses the Khan sir controversy, infrastructure issues in a tribal village, and Modi's record as the longest-serving PM.
First, we speak with The Indian Express' Himanshu Harsh about the controversy surrounding Khan sir. Khan sir is one of the most popular educators and Youtubers in India, but recently his institute in Patna was allegedly attacked and vandalized. While the investigation was going on regarding the same, a FIR was also filed against Khan sir himself. Next, we speak with The Indian Express' Aditi Raja who shares the story of a tribal village in Gujarat where two pregnant women have died due to the lack of a constructed road. The village remains disconnected due to its tough terrain despite the state government promising them that a road will be constructed so that ambulances can reach the villagers. (10:43) Lastly, we talk about Prime Minister Narendra Modi becoming the longest continuously serving elected Prime Minister in India’s history, completing 4,399 consecutive days in office. (23:31) Hosted by Niharika Nanda Produced by Shashank Bhargava, Ichha Sharma and Niharika Nanda Edited and mixed by Suresh Pawar
