This week in India
India's media is heavily focused on the devastating floods in Nepal, with extensive coverage of the hundreds of Indian citizens affected, missing, or killed, prompting high alerts in border states like Bihar and Uttar Pradesh. Domestically, headlines highlight ongoing issues such as the IIT-Delhi suicide probe, protests over the NEET exam leak, and political developments including disqualification notices for TMC MPs and allegations of misused powers in the Rajasthan High Court. Additionally, a US religious freedom panel has urged the revocation of RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat's visa.
