4:20 pm The Ashtalakshmi Temple on Synott Rd near West Bellfort has grown significantly since it was founded in 2007 and is currently installing on a clearing on the
site, a giant 90-foot statue of Hanuman which will be visible from miles away. We turn to temple Board member and Joint Secretary Dr Ranganath Kandala and Treasurer Pavan Achuta to tell us how this project was envisioned,
when it will be completed and more details.
4:50 pm General elections are currently being held in India over the next two weeks, with five weeks of voting gone by. It brings out the largest such turnout of voters in the world, over 900 million people across 27 states. It is both a logistics challenge as well as a civics lesson in hearing the voices of people in distant regions. In our 8 week series on the elections, we are joined today again by India political analysts Kapil Sharma, Aadit Kapadia & Vishnu Pandey, to learn more about the latest election results.
5:20 pm The Overseas Friends of the Bharati Janata Party has been hugely instrumental in the party’s rise to power since 1999 and especially since 2014 when Prime Minister Narendra Modi assumed office. To achieve this, it has reached out to the millions of Indians who live overseas for support – both financial and logistical – and chapters exist in many countries. Today, we are very fortunate to have with us the President of the OFBJP-USA, Dr. Adapa Prasad, who is calling in from the East Coast to explain how the organization has grown and functions.
Also stay tuned in for news roundup, views, sports and movie reviews.
