Sabarimala case review, IMD predicts weak monsoon, and Stalin's warning

First, we speak to The Indian Express’ Apurva Vishwanath about the Sabarimala Temple Entry case, as a nine-judge bench of the Supreme Court re-examines the landmark ruling that allowed women of all ages to enter the temple, and the larger constitutional questions around faith, equality, and judicial intervention.

Next, we talk to The Indian Express’ Amitabh Sinha about why this year’s monsoon forecast is raising concerns, with the India Meteorological Department predicting below-normal rainfall and warning of possible disruptions linked to El Niño. (14:00)

And in the end, we look at how M. K. Stalin has escalated his opposition to the Centre’s proposed delimitation exercise, framing it as a question of federal balance and political representation. (24:15)
