Literary Triumph and Cultural Reflections in Kannada

First, we talk to The Indian Express’ Jay Mazoomdar about two fatal tiger attacks in Ranthambore National Park over the past month and poor wildlife management contributed to these incidents.

Next, we speak to The Indian Express’ Anjali Marar about why this year’s summer has been unusually cool across much of India and how this moderation could influence the upcoming monsoon. (13:01)

And in the end, we look at Kannada author Banu Mushtaq’s short story collection Heart Lamp, which won the 2025 International Booker Prize. (23:34)
