This week, host Basant Kumar is joined by Newslaundry’s Ayush Tiwari and freelance journalist Saurabh Sharma.Ayush talks about his report on how the “Hindutva takeover” of the Indian Council of Historical Research is fuelled by nepotism. “The brothers, relatives, nephews related to Hindutva organisations are being hired on temporary jobs by ICHR,” he says. “And within weeks, they are promoted to posts like deputy manager. They are giving government jobs for free.”The discussion moves to Saurabh’s Newsclick report on youths migrating out of Bundelkhand in search of jobs, and how this will influence voters in Uttar Pradesh. “Unemployment issue is too big to be avoided in the state,” he says. “There hasn’t been a single week without lathicharge...on people protesting regarding jobs in UP in the last one month.”This, and a lot more as they talk about what made news, what didn’t, and what shouldn’t have.Tune in.RecommendationsSaurabhNewsclickThe Hindu’s election coverageBasantOne big family: The Hindutva takeover of ICHR is fuelled by nepotismAyushOmprakash Rajbhar Interview में Saurabh Dwivedi से CM Yogi, Akhilesh Yadav, UP Election पर क्या बोले See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
