Rahul Gandhi vs EC over vote chori claim, Saudi Arabia signs defence deal with Pakistan, more

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has dropped another vote chori charge on the Election Commission, claiming centralised software used to delete voters in Karnataka's Aland assembly segment ahead of the 2023 polls. Meanwhile, the Election Commission (EC) has hit back, stating they had filed the original FIR to probe irregularities and denied that mass deletions had taken place.

Furthermore, a new strategic mutual defense deal signed between Saudi Arabia and Pakistan, declaring an attack on one as an attack on both, carries significant geopolitical implications for India and West Asia. The programme also covers a tragic incident in Delhi where a police van fatally ran over a disabled man, bringing the conduct of law enforcement under scrutiny, with eyewitnesses alleging officer intoxication.
