Episode Afghans under scrutiny, a bird changes its call, and avalanche in Nepal
First, we speak to The Indian Express’ Shubham Tigga about how Jharkhand’s voter-roll revision has left a small Afghan-origin community in Jamshedpur fearful, and the difficult questions it raises about residence, documentation and citizenship. Next, we speak to The Indian Express’ Vidheesha Kuntamalla about how human-made noise is changing the calls of the Himalayan monal, why this behavioural adaptation matters, and how development and climate change are affecting the bird’s habitat. (08:30) And in the end, we look at the major avalanche on Nepal’s Himlung Himal, where at least two people have died and 14 remain missing as rescue efforts continue amid hazardous weather conditions. (21:30) Hosted by Ichha Sharma Produced and written by Shashank Bhargava, Niharika Nanda and Ichha Sharma Edited and mixed by Suresh Pawar
