Govt funds diverted, ricin terror plot, and NCERT textbook pulled back
About this episode
First, we speak to The Indian Express’ Hamza Khan about how a network of scamsters allegedly diverted funds from flagship welfare schemes like PM-Kisan in Rajasthan, roping in thousands of illegal beneficiaries.
Next, The Indian Express' Brendan Dabhi and Nikhila Henry explain a ricin-linked bioterror investigation that began in Gujarat and has now been handed over to the National Investigation Agency. (15:20)
And in the end, we look at why NCERT has withdrawn its newly released Class 8 Social Science textbook after objections were raised over a section discussing corruption in the judiciary. (26:00)
