Bill passed unread by MLAs, retaining more Agniveers, and Badrinath probe

First, we speak to The Indian Express’ Kanchan Vasadev about the controversy over Punjab’s anti-sacrilege law, after MLAs admitted they passed the Bill without reading it, reigniting questions about legislative scrutiny, the anti-defection law, and the role of Select Committees in lawmaking.Next, we talk to The Indian Express’ Amrita Nayak Dutta about the changes the armed forces are seeking to the Agnipath scheme, why they want to retain a larger proportion of Agniveers permanently, and what that could mean for the future of military recruitment. (11:05)And in the end, we look at the suspension of a staff member at the Badrinath Kedarnath Temple Committee amid allegations of irregularities in handling donations, and the wider probe ordered by the Uttarakhand government into how offerings at Badrinath Dham are being managed.
