Show Notes

First, we speak to The Indian Express’ Mohamed Thaver about the shooting targeting actor Tiger Shroff, the alleged links to organised crime networks, and whether the attack signals the return of an extortion model that once terrorised Bollywood.

Next, we speak to The Indian Express’ Nayonika Bose about a study finding that 35 per cent of Mumbai is vulnerable to seawater intrusion, what this could mean for the city’s groundwater and the measures proposed to contain the threat. (18:20)

And in the end, we look at the FIR filed in Uttarakhand over social media posts questioning the government’s investment claims, and the political dispute surrounding the outcomes of the 2023 Global Investors Summit. (32:25)
