Another Election Show: Can new parties and candidates make any difference?

In this episode of Another Election Show, Atul Chaurasia and Manisha Pande speak to young voters to understand their issues and the changes they would like to see in Indian politics. They are joined by Meghnad S, their former Newslaundry colleague who is now a YouTube creator and also an independent candidate from the Malviya Nagar constituency.

Voters say that infrastructure and basic amenities in Delhi are from the kind a national capital should have. Sexual harassment is becoming unavoidable in public spaces, says a woman voter. There is no focus on air pollution, says another. And Meghnad believes politics has become too confrontational.

Can newer parties and candidates make any difference?
