NIT To Handwara: Are Politicians Playing With Fire In Kashmir?

Four people have died in firing by security personnel in Handwara and Kupwara in the Kashmir Valley. Today, Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti met PM Narendra Modi as well as the Defence Minister who promised "strictest possible sentence" to those found guilty. This as the non-Kashmiri students of NIT Srinagar brought their protests to Delhi demanding that the institute be shifted out of Srinagar. This is the first challenge for PDP-BJP government. On The Buck Stops Here, we ask: can the state government meet these challenges? And is BJP-PDP ideological divide deepening the J&K faultlines?

Gurgaon Goes 'Sanskari', To Be Called Gurugram

As the Khattar government changed the name of Gurgaon to Gurugram, anybody with a sense of humour had a field day online. On The Buck Stops Here, BJP's Sudhanshu Trivedi, stand-up comic Sanjay Rajoura and theatre personality Aamir Raza Husain discuss what's this name-changing all about. And why is government focusing on the name and not the multiple problems the city is facing?
