Reporters Without Orders Ep 211: Faith and Goan politics, and the Congress in UP

This week, host Ayush Tiwari is joined by Newslaundry's Nidhi Suresh and the Quint’s Fatima Khan.

The panel looks back at their reportage on the assembly elections in Uttar Pradesh and Goa. Fatima explains how the Congress’s Priyanka Gandhi Vadra “evidently put in effort” in Uttar Pradesh “while the rest of the party lacks touch from the ground”.

Nidhi takes listeners through her reports from Goa, including the role of the church in the election process, explaining that faith is a big part of politics in the state. “The church works very closely with the votes,” she says, “but it’s concealed very cleverly.”

This, and a lot more, as they talk about what made news, what didn’t, and what shouldn’t have.

Tune in.
