  • Grace Banu on how transgender lives have changed 10 years after NALSA

    Grace Banu on how transgender lives have changed 10 years after NALSA
    Jun 30 2024
    In 2014, the Supreme Court ruled on a writ filed by the National Legal Services Authority (NALSA), stating that the government, both at the state and Centre, must grant full legal recognition to transgender individuals.

    That judgment, in many ways, helped pave the way for the landmark Section 377 verdict. But ten years on, how much of the promise of that verdict has been realized in practice for the transgender community? To answer this question, Sandip is joined by Dalit and transgender rights activist Grace Banu.

    Grace is India's first transgender engineer and the founder of the Trans Rights Now Collective.

    The puzzling questions of the Bhima Koregaon Case ft Alpa Shah
    Jun 10 2024
    Alpa Shah’s latest book, The Incarcerations, a finalist for the Orwell Prize for Political Writing, unravels and uncovers the chilling story of the Bhima Koregaon case and how sixteen human rights defenders—including academics, poets, trade unionists, and Dalit organizers—were labeled urban Naxalites, charged with inciting violence, and accused of waging a war against the Indian state. In this episode, Shah joins host Sandip Roy to unpack the case and discuss some of its most puzzling questions.

    Alpa Shah is a professor of anthropology at the London School of Economics.

  • Is AAP a game changer or has the game changed it? ft Ashutosh and Neelanjan Sircar

    Is AAP a game changer or has the game changed it? ft Ashutosh and Neelanjan Sircar
    May 26 2024
    The Aam Aadmi Party, led by Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, is one of the most formidable political parties in the country and has often been described as a game-changer. But to what extent has that been the case? Has it truly transformed Indian politics, or has Indian politics, in turn, reshaped what the party once stood for?

    In this episode, host Sandip Roy is joined by Ashutosh and Neelanjan Sircar to discuss the evolution of the party, its current standing, the threat it poses to the BJP, and the challenges that lie ahead.

    Ashutosh is a former member of AAP, the co-founder and editor of SatyaHindi, and the author of Hindu Rashtra. Sircar is a senior fellow at the Centre for Policy Research (CPR).
