First, we speak to The Indian Express’ Pallavi Smart about the death of IIT Bombay student Sahil Wakode, the protests and demands that followed, and the questions being raised about institutional accountability and mental-health support on campus.

Next, we speak to The Indian Express’ Alok Deshpande about the Rakhandar Yatra, through which young activists are walking across Maharashtra’s Konkan region to connect concerns over development projects with local culture, livelihoods and environmental protection. (7:55)
