Delimitation concerns, athlete sponsorships, and Bihar's first BJP CM
About this episode
First, we talk to The Indian Express' Vikas Pathak about the three bills that were circulated by the centre, which will pave the way for a fresh round of delimitation. The exercise could increase the strength of the Lok Sabha, while bringing into effect one third reservation for women. Vikas shares the concerns that have been raised against the exercise, especially by the Southern states.
Next, we talk to The Indian Express' Amaal Sheikh about a circular that was released by the Athletics Federation of India, which said that athletes will have to inform the AFI about their sponsorships and the contracts that they sign with regards to the same. Amaal shares more about the circular and how it has been receiving backlash. (13:14)
Lastly, we talk about Nitish Kumar resigning from the post of Bihar's CM and paving the way for BJP's Samrat Choudhary. (19:07)
