Hafta 142: Rahul Gandhi, the Aarushi verdict, Sangeet Som’s Taj Mahal remark and more

BJP MP Sangeet Som has stoked a new controversy by saying the Taj Mahal was built by a traitor and was a blot on Indian culture. Madhu Trehan, Anand Ranganathan, Anand Vardhan, Atul Chaurasia and Raman Kirpal discuss what was wrong with the statement and Vardhan tells us why such loose cannons are inevitable. They talk about the Aarushi verdict and how the media acted as a super investigating agency. How the media's role was different in the Aarushi-Hemraj murder case than the Jessica Lall murder case. The ascension of Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi as party chief is imminent, according to Sonia Gandhi. Is Rahul ready to handle the responsibility? Our Hafta gang examines the issue. Listen up, there is a song dedication in the end too.
