The Latest Breaking News from Hafta

Hafta letters: Khalistan agenda, media bias, Israel-Palestine violence

Letter on September 28: In Hafta’s episode 451, the panel had no reaction to Sajjan Kumar getting acquitted. Not blaming anyone, just highlighting how something that might not seem significant in other parts of the country is a major development for the Sikhs. Tytler and Sajjan were the biggest names…

Hafta letters: Chandrayaan-3, scientific temper and cost-benefit analysis

This email is intentionally left blank, as it looks like you need to achieve something great (I have no clue) to ask questions.

Hafta letters: Caste, China and AAP’s silence on Sisodia

Hi team,

Newslaundry

Hafta letters: Space exploration, Sudha Murty, Manipur videos

I religiously listen to both NL Hafta and NL Charcha. Many a times I feel an element of non-seriousness in Hafta discussions. For instance, in one of the past episodes, Abhinandan wasn’t aware of who late Anupam Mishra was, while Atul called him his guru. As a listener, I find…

Hafta letters: Atheists, moon missions, US court systems

Hey NL team, it’s दिवगुन्न btw. I thought it best to type out in Hindi. My suggestion to the NL team is if they can start film discussions, critique and roundtables with sound designers, cinematographers and writers. As somebody who works in the film industry, it is sad to not…

My few feedback related to the discussions around the time of letters reading:

Newslaundry

Hafta letters: Gandhi and celibacy, battling propaganda, Uniform Civil Code

Great work, Newslaundry, and a special shoutout to Manisha for watching painful Godi media and making TV Newsance. I would love to hear the panel’s views on Gandhi’s celibacy experiments, particularly the controversial aspect of him sleeping in the same room as his grand niece, sometimes naked, as part of…

Newslaundry

Hafta letters: Sex and gender, hacking, the Mahabharata, land ownership

Regarding Sekhri's response to my letter, I had already qualified my response by saying that I am not asking you to go educate yourself. I was not even getting into whether I agree or disagree with you. The suggestion was that you do not forcefully shut down someone who knows…

Newslaundry

Hafta letters: CoWIN data leak, swearing on Hafta, Uttarakhand discussion

Request Abhinandan/Manisha to read this letter. I don't think I’m alone in this feeling but I like Abhinandan swearing on the podcast, it conveys a deep emotion of feeling fucked. It might be crude, but "fuck" is a feeling that at least begins to address the bizarre unfolding of events…

Newslaundry

Hafta letters: Gender, pronunciations, Dalai Lama, Karnataka election coverage

Dear NL family ,

Hafta letters: Encounter killings, Dalai Lama, a friend through NL

Does the Indian police have a department such as internal affairs in the US? I’ve seen Hollywood movies where IA officers investigate crimes committed by police, whether it’s torture, financial irregularities, custodial deaths, encounter killings, etc.

Hafta letters: Kannada conversation, calling out fake news, fantasy cricket

Love the work you are doing. Recently I supported the NL Sena. But as I want to gift a subscription, I could not find someone who is interested mostly in national politics. I know that you guys will expand eventually, but why don't you find someone to collab with meanwhile?

Newslaundry

Hafta letters: Orwell’s 1984, bigotry, audio interviews

There appears to be a deliberate attempt to tar only the majority community in your podcast. This is especially true of one senior panelist from whom I have yet to get one adverse comment on the minority community's provocation in riots. I wish this position is corrected and fair debate…

Newslaundry

Hafta letters: Privilege, prep for 2024 election, collaborations

In the last Hafta on the issue of the central government not allowing anything against Modi, most panelists missed the point that even in state governments, the CM or party leader cannot be criticised by anyone without inviting the ire of the state government. Can one criticise Stalin in TN…

Hafta letters: NL interview problems, Adani coverage, Ravish job offer

Raman sir and Abhinandan, you asked if any country is capitalist/socialist? Well, socialism and capitalism are not mere labels that can be put on countries and then be defended or ridiculed. They are policy frameworks. A policy is as capitalist as it fits in that framework and the laws as…

Hafta letters: Karnataka coverage, YouTube super chat, food preferences

Hello NL team,

Hafta letters: Past NL content, questions on NL Sena, Abhinandan’s critics

Hi NL team,

Hafta letters: Haldwani reports, edited videos, low-decibel debates

Hello guys,

Hafta letters: Salvatore Babones interview, best NL stories, praise for app

I feel like my mails are always critical of NL (and almost exclusively of Abhinandan). But I expect nothing but excellence from NL, and when that doesn't happen, I feel the need call it out, because I, like many subscribers, want NL to do well and gain wider audience.
