Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s jibe against Rajya Sabha MP Renuka Chowdhury may have sparked a mini-Mahabharat of sorts. This got the Hafta panel talking about the remark — should such remarks be taken lightly? Manisha Pande, Anand Ranganathan, Meghnad, Anand Vardhan and Raman Kirpal also discuss Amit Shah’s debut speech in Parliament, where he defended the Modi’s pakoda remark. They also talk about the murder of Ankit Saxena, a boy who loved a Muslim girl and was killed by the girl’s kin. In addition, they also talk about Member of Parliament Vinay Katiyar and his recent statements that made the news.
