from 3 Things · host Express Audio

First, we speak to The Indian Express’ Udit Misra about the economic fallout of the ongoing West Asia conflict, as an interim outlook highlights which economies are being hit the hardest and what risks lie ahead for countries like India.Next, we talk to The Indian Express’ Vineet Bhalla about how courts are increasingly questioning the use of Section 69 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, with judges warning against turning failed but consensual relationships into criminal cases and stressing the need to prove intent to deceive from the outset. (22:10)And in the end, we look at the stampede at the Maa Sheetla Temple that claimed several lives, once again raising concerns about crowd management and administrative preparedness at large public gatherings in India.Hosted by Ichha SharmaProduced and written by Shashank Bhargava and Ichha SharmaEdited and mixed by Suresh Pawar
