Check out new kind of opensource fact based political commentary by an amateur citizen reporter by passion :)
Two humans from two completely different parts of the world exchanging notes about a common existential crisis, Covid. P.S- fact checking myself - India's stimulus package until now is USD 22.2 Bn which is also very very low for a population of 1.39 Bn + the Italian tourists in India tested positive on March 4th not Feb. Thank you :)
This was recorded before the results of the Delhi elections were announced. A friend from Chennai joins me to discuss the freebie theory. I honestly call it tax benefits.
India is still not reacting to the magnitude of the Coronavirus outbreak, so in this episode I talk to a brave MBBS student back from Wuhan. The next 41 mins is a window into the students realization of the outbreak in Wuhan and his experience traveling back through the Indian screening process. There was a lot of complacency and lax in the containment process across airports - Kolkata, Bengaluru and finally Cochin. Hope it makes Indians ask the right questions.
This Republic Day I launch the first episode of TalkingSpri. Enjoy this fresh millennial perspective on everything politics!
