The Halfta gang discuss how the debates surrounding Gurmehar Kaur's appeal for peace amidst the chaos of the Ramjas College protests is indicative of all that is wrong with mainstream television journalism in India. Our panelists Abhinandan Sekhri, Madhu Trehan, Anand Ranganathan, Manisha Pande, Deepanjana Pal are on fire. Joining them is Sandeep Bamzai, Editor-in-Chief of the Financial Chronicle. Bamzai think that Ramjas College's literary society was "baiting" the rest of the students by inviting PhD student Umar Khalid, who was charged with sedition last year. There are clashes of opinion as we discuss the new juvenile law and Casey Affleck receiving an Oscar. Sekhri and Ranganathan butt heads, Bamzai explains why the growth in our Gross Domestic Product could be for real and find out what our panel thinks of the Supreme Court's decision to reject a woman's request to abort her 26-week-old foetus. Also Bamzai coins a new term, Teleguerrillas. Tune in to find out who this is. All this and more on this week's Hafta.
