About this episode

First, we talk to The Indian Express' Anonna Dutt about the students who go abroad and especially to Iran to study medicine. Currently the Indian government is making efforts to bring back all Indians from Iran and Anonna shares why so many of them are medical students.

Next, we talk to The Indian Express' Divya A about private papers of public personalities that are stored at the Prime Minister's Museum and Library. She discusses the case of Sonia Gandhi reclaiming some of Jawaharlal Nehru's private papers and restricting access to them and how the organisation wants to take action against that. (9:15)

Lastly, we talk about a newly constructed rail over bridge that has drawn national attention due to its rather abrupt 90-degree turn. Instead of easing into a curve as it changes direction, like most bridges, this one takes a hard right. (21:38)
