Mumbai BMC Polls 2025: 'Cash For Votes' | US-Iran Tensions On Rise | NewsToday With Rajdeep Sardesai

Описание: Former Indian envoy Talmiz Ahmad analyzes escalating Iran-US tensions, providing a perspective on the ground reality in Tehran following a high-level call between Iranian and Indian foreign ministers. Ahmad notes there is 'no evidence of a pullback' from American military rhetoric and attributes widespread Iranian protests to 'extreme economic privation,' while suggesting they lack the leadership for regime change. He also critiques India's 'low-key approach' to the crisis. Domestically, the focus shifts to electoral practices, with a significant 'cash for votes' controversy in Maharashtra ahead of the BMC elections. Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Jayesh Vani alleges widespread corruption and failure of police to act. The report also examines the broader culture of election freebies, highlighting the 'Gift Raj' in Tamil Nadu and an incident in Madhya Pradesh where gifted silver coins were found to be fake. Additionally, the bulletin covers a political storm at Lucknow's KGMU following 'love jihad' allegations and vandalism.
