FFI’s Only Official Entry for Oscars Is Laapataa Ladies, Not Veer Savarkar
Misinformation around India's Oscar entry, the looming Middle Eastern conflict, and India’s naukri crisis come to the fore in today’s edition.
Climate activist Sonam Wangchuk, who's been advocating for the Ladakhis in a march that started from Leh a month ago, was detained near Delhi, causing uproar against the Centre. What is Wangchuk's motive behind the march, his key demands, and the expectations from the Centre? Watch his interview with The Quint from last month where he answers all these questions — and more. Ahead of the Haryana elections, check out Aliza Noor's ground report from Nuh, where, despite past violence, Meo Muslims talk about prioritising communal harmony. As the crisis in the Middle East worsens, hardliners in Israel and Iran push the region toward a larger conflict — Manoj Joshi analyses what's at stake.
Talking of another crisis closer to home — as two recent cases of suicides over 'work pressure' and 'toxic culture' come to the fore — The Quint wants to emphasise the need for us to bring you stories of India's Naukri Crisis. For that, we need your support — BECOME A MEMBER today.
