Summary

First, we speak to The Indian Express’ Purnima Sah about Maharashtra’s new anti-conversion law, why Christian congregations are asking worshippers to sign self-declaration forms, and the concerns surrounding disruptions and monitoring of prayer meetings. ext, we speak to The Indian Express’ Anonna Dutt about Intismeran, a personalised cancer vaccine that has shown promising results against skin cancer, how it works alongside immunotherapy, and whether similar treatments could eventually become accessible in India. (12:50) And in the end, we look at Cricket Australia’s decision to allow former Mumbai Under-19 cricketer Anaya Bangar to play women’s community cricket following her gender transition, and the different eligibility rules governing transgender participation at the community and elite levels. (23:35) Hosted by Ichha Sharma Produced and written by Shashank Bhargava, Niharika Nanda and Ichha Sharma Edited and mixed by Suresh Pawar
