The Another Election Show caravan has reached Uttarakhand. In this episode, Atul Chaurasia sits down with the leaders of political parties’ youth wing, journalists and students of DAV College in Dehradun to understand the undercurrents in the state ahead of the Lok Sabha polls. We particularly gauge the mood in the Haridwar Lok Sabha constituency, which earlier recorded volatile political scenarios, and has mostly been held by the BJP. In the current polls, BJP’s former chief minister Trivendra Singh Rawat and Congress’s ex-CM Harish Rawat’s son Virendra Rawat are in the fray in Haridwar. Also contesting are Umesh Kumar, a journalist-turned-politician standing as an independent candidate, and BSP’s Jalil Ahmed Qasmi. Notably, the constituency has significant Muslim and Dalit voters.Atul is also joined by senior journalist Jai Singh Rawat, Baramasa editor Rahul Kotiyal, and senior journalist Pradeep Sati. From the Uniform Civil Code to unemployment, Ram Mandir, migration for jobs, and the infamous Ankita Bhandari murder case that rocked the state – what are the major issues plaguing Haridwar and Uttarakhand?

Polling for the Lok Sabha elections is set to begin. So, Atul Chaurasia and Manisha Pandey have hit the ground, to bring you the most authentic voices on Another Election Show – starting from Uttar Pradesh’s Rampur.Rampur – a bastion of the now-jailed Samajwadi Party leader Azam Khan – is one of the 102 seats to go to polls in the first phase of the elections beginning on April 19. The constituency with 52 percent Muslim vote share, and 48 percent vote share of Hindus and others, has been a stronghold of the Congress, and then Azam Khan. But after Khan’s conviction in four cases in October 2022, is the constituency again charting its own course? In the 2022 by-elections, the BJP’s Ghanshyam Singh Lodhi won the seat. Is he looking at a repeat win? Meanwhile, the SP has fielded Mohibullah Nadvi, imam of a Delhi-based mosque, who has been unable to appeal to Khan’s supporters. The Bahujan Samaj Party’s candidate is Zeeshan Khan. Will it divide the Muslim votes? Newslaundry spoke to the students of Rampur’s Raza PG College and advocate Junaidur Rahman about the undercurrents ahead of the polls, the local politics, and issues that matter the most. How’s the table turning in Rampur? Tune in. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

एनएल इंटरव्यू में इस बार राष्ट्रीय जनता दल (आरजेडी) के राज्यसभा सांसद मनोज झा से बातचीत हुई. इसमें ‘इंडिया’ और भारत के बीच उठे विवाद, जी 20 के आयोजन, एक देश, एक चुनाव, संसद का विशेष सत्र के अलावा मीडिया द्वारा विपक्ष को निशाना बनाने की प्रवृत्ति पर विस्तार से बातचीत हुई. विपक्षी गठबंधन ‘इंडिया’ के सत्ता में आने के एक सवाल पर मनोज झा कहते हैं, “यदि हमारी पार्टी की सरकार बनती है तो भाजपा को भी आज़ादी मिलेगी. मोदीजी के नेतृत्व में भाजपा की सांस भी फूल रही है. भाजपा को भी आज़ादी की ज़रूरत है.” गठबंधन के नाम को निशाना बनाए जाने और भारत बनाम इंडिया की बहस पर वे कहते हैं, “मीडिया संस्थान कितनी मेहनत करके डॉट लगाकर गठबंधन का नाम लिखते हैं लेकिन पाठक उसे इंडिया ही पढ़ते हैं. हमें ये पता था कि इंडिया नाम रखेंगे तो भाजपा भारत के नाम पर विवाद खड़ा करेगी. इसीलिए हमारी पार्टी ने पहले दिन टैगलाइन निर्धारित की थी- ‘जुड़ेगा भारत, जीतेगा इंडिया.’ भाजपा और कुछ मीडिया संस्थान जिस तरह से हताश हैं, ऐसा न हो कि वो कहने लगें कि सभी नाम खारिज करके देश का नाम जम्बूद्वीप होना चाहिए.”जी ट्वेंटी शिखर सम्मेलन को लेकर झा कहते हैं, “किसी भी देश में ऐसा नहीं हुआ है कि कर्फ्यू और सन्नाटे वाले माहौल में जश्न मनाया गया हो. इसमें लोकतंत्र की खुश्बू नहीं आती है, बल्कि राजतंत्र की बदबू आती है.”इसके अलावा मनोज ने केंद्र सरकार द्वारा 18-23 सितंबर तक बुलाए गए संसद के विशेष सत्र, एक देश, एक चुनाव, पीएम नरेंद्र मोदी के कार्यकाल के दौरान सरकारी संस्थाओं में आए बदलाव और मीडिया के सत्ताधारी पार्टी की तरफ झुकाव आदि विषयों पर बेबाकी से अपनी राय रखी.

Journalist and author Sugata Srinivasaraju sits down with Manisha Pande and Atul Chaurasia to discuss caste politics in Karnataka. Sugata gives a brief history of two dominant communities Vokkaligas and Lingayats, and how they became important in Karnataka’s electoral politics. Sugata says it is a myth to say that Lingayats and Vokkaligas determine politics in India and it is a myth perpetrated by the Lingayats themselves. He explains why this election is all about subcastes. He says the Panchamsalis Lingayats and the most-oppressed segment of Dalit voters may continue to support the BJP and so this election is not over yet. The three also discuss what role the BJP’s Hindutva politics will play in countering caste dynamics and why getting a Lingayat CM to play the Hindutva card didn't work for the BJP. Hosted on Acast.

On the #MorningShow, Atul and Manisha catch up with students of Gujarat University. Young people in their 20s have grown up seeing only one party in rule – the #BJP. How do they assess the party’s work? Do they yearn for a change? And what do they think of vikaas in Gujarat? On law and order, students born in 2002 believe that they have seen a peaceful state compared to their parents’ experience, while others feel strict action is needed against illicit liquor and drug trade in the state. The quality of education and lack of adequate skilling at the postgraduate level remain a key concern. Students also say that it’s not enough for the governing party to tom-tom PM Modi’s face and there is a lack of a strong CM candidate in Gujarat. Hosted on Acast.

Plants do not have a central nervous system. There is no confirmed study that proves that plants have feelings. Whereas animals feel pain and fear just as humans do. They're tortured and raped.
