Tonight on The Buck Stops Here:
PM Modi silent on BJP leaders' rants
Minorities Affairs Minister Najma Heptullah clarified today that a comment seemingly mirroring RSS Chief Mohan Bhagwat's remarks on all Indians being 'Hindus' was misquoted saying she said 'Hindi' and not 'Hindu'. But even so in the ongoing discourse on politics, identity and communal conflict, this is just the latest in a series of statements that have been made. We examine why as the PM repeatedly talks of an inclusive Bharat, he is silent on the extreme and aggressive statements of several leaders of the Sangh Parivar?
Can failed relationships lead to rape charges?
Karnataka BJP leader and Railway Minister Sadanand Gowda's son Karthik has been accused of cheating and rape by a woman he was allegedly in a relationship with but refused to marry. The police has begun its investigation into what seems to be a love story gone wrong. While it is for a court to decide if there is truth to her charges, after the case is investigated, we're asking if there is such a thing as crying rape?
