You should watch: Sreenivasan Jain’s 25-minute report on the government’s anti-corruption crusade. There has been a four-fold jump in ED cases since 2014—over 90% target leaders that “happen to be” from the opposition. What makes it worth your time: Jain speaks to members of regional parties, scholars, and BJP sympathisers—and offers both the critique for the campaign–and the justification typically offered for it.

Bonus pick #1: At an India Today conclave, the veteran and usually diplomatic Rajdeep Sardesai was asked for his take on the country’s future. His answer was articulate as always–but also unexpectedly passionate and blunt. Watch it here—skip to the 1:15 mark to get past Rahul Kanwal’s rambling intro. 

Bonus pick #2: The Supreme Court’s temporary ban on Patanjali ads did not stop Aaj Tak from airing them. Newslaundry’s video looks back at the India Today group’s role in promoting Baba Ramdev’s Patanjali products. Also addressed: Dhruv Rathee’s claim that India is heading towards a dictatorship.
