First, we speak to The Indian Express’ Nikhila Henry about a proposed amendment to India’s transgender persons law that has triggered protests across the country.
Next, we turn to Gujarat, where bootleggers are using stretches of the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway to smuggle liquor into the state. The Indian Express’ Aditi Raja explains how these networks operate, the methods used to evade detection, and how enforcement agencies are responding. (12:30)
