SC stays new UGC rules, what Gita Gopinath meant, and Anil Ambani group probe

First, we discuss the new set of UGC anti-discrimination rules for Indian universities now paused by the Supreme Court. We speak to The Indian Express’ Vidheesha Kuntamalla about what these rules aimed to change, why they’ve sparked backlash, and what happens next.

Next, we discuss a less-talked-about economic risk, public health. The Indian Express’ Udit Misra tells us why economists are warning that failing health metrics could derail India’s economic ambitions. (11:50)

And in the end, we look at the latest updates in the Enforcement Directorate’s money laundering probe into the Anil Ambani group, with fresh assets worth ₹1,885 crore attached. (25:50)
