TUNGKOL SA EPISODE NA ITO
In this week’s South Central, hosts Dhanya Rajendran and Pooja Prasanna examine the legal questions surrounding the detention of Saurav Das and Ashutosh Ranka, the use of peace bonds and the limits of the state’s power to prevent protests. They are joined by Apar Gupta, advocate and founder-director of the Internet Freedom Foundation, to discuss the role of executive magistrates, preventive detention and the implications for the right to dissent.
In the second part of the episode, the hosts speak to Sravasti Dasgupta of The Wire about YSRCP chief Jagan Mohan Reddy’s statement that he regrets supporting the 2023 law governing the appointment of Election Commissioners, and what this could mean for the political positioning of parties that have maintained that they are not aligned with either the BJP-led NDA or the INDIA bloc.
