Bangladesh Hasn't Seen a Bloodletting of This Magnitude Since the 1971 War
In today's newsletter, we decode the violence in Bangladesh over the weekend – and what it means for India, as well as the violent incidents surrounding Kanwar Yatra this year.
With over 60-65 libraries shut overnight in Delhi's Gautam Nagar, hundreds of medical students – many of whom are preparing for the NEET-PG exam scheduled to take place on 11 August – have been left in the lurch. Anoushka Rajesh spent a day in the area to uncover the ripple effects of the tragic incident at Rau’s IAS coaching centre. In Lucknow, a woman’s harrowing experience of being groped by a mob during heavy rains has sparked outrage. We go beyond the viral video to bring you the full story.
