The French newspaper Libération published on its front page the image of Syrian children who were victims of a chemical attack. Strategic affairs analyst, Sushant Sareen and the Hafta-gang wonders if they’d ever run such images about tragedies that take place on their own soil. Besides that, Sareen, joins Abhinandan Sekhri, Madhu Trehan, Anand Ranganathan, Manisha Pande and Anand Vardhan to talk about Kulbhushan Jadhav and his death sentence and what this means for Indo-Pak relations. We also talk about Sudarshan TV Editor-in-Chief Suresh Chavhanke’s arrest for fanning communal violence, the Election Commission’s open challenge to hack the EVMs, and the now-infamous video of CRPF jawans being attacked in Kashmir. All this and more in this episode of Hafta.
