Fuel price worries, Bengal CM aide’s murder, and another bridge collapse

 

First, we speak to The Indian Express’ Sukalp Sharma about the mounting pressure on India’s state-owned oil marketing companies as global energy prices remain elevated amid the continuing West Asia conflict.

Next, we talk to The Indian Express’ Sweety Kumari about the murder of Chandranath Rath, a close aide of West Bengal Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari, and why investigators now believe the killing may be part of a larger conspiracy. (10:35)

And in the end, we look at the partial collapse of Bihar’s Vikramshila bridge, after repeated warnings about its deteriorating condition allegedly went unaddressed for nearly two years. (22:05)
