Vijay, AIADMK and horse-trading in Tamil Nadu | LME 140 | Pooja Prasanna

Tamil Nadu politics is going through a major shift. For decades, the DMK and AIADMK dominated the state’s political landscape. But Vijay’s entry through TVK is beginning to disrupt that balance. As AIADMK MLAs resign and move toward TVK, conversations around “horse trading” have entered Tamil Nadu politics in a big way. But what exactly is horse trading? How do political defections work in India? And why does every party desperately want MLAs? In this episode of Let Me Explain, Pooja Prasanna breaks down the history of political defections in India, the Anti-Defection Law, Karnataka’s Operation Kamala and why Tamil Nadu may be entering a completely new political phase.

Inside CBSE’s digital evaluation fiasco: Let Me Explain 139 | Pooja Prasanna

CBSE’s digital evaluation rollout was supposed to modernise India’s examination system. Now serious questions are being raised about accountability. Why did CBSE roll out the system without proper regional trials? Why are ethical hackers alleging vulnerabilities in the platform? And what role did Coempt Edu Teck, the company linked by many to the on-screen marking system, play in this rollout? In this episode of Let Me Explain, Pooja Prasanna examines the controversy.

Can India blame just war for its economic slowing? | LME 138 | Pooja Prasanna

For years, India’s economy was projected as one of the world’s fastest-growing success stories. But long before the Iran-Israel-US war pushed oil prices higher, warning signs had already begun to appear - falling wages, weak demand, slowing exports, struggling MSMEs, and a weakening rupee. So did the war trigger India’s economic stress? Or did it simply expose deeper problems that were already building beneath the surface? In this episode of Let Me Explain, Pooja Prasanna breaks down why economists are worried about India’s economy, what the falling rupee and rising fuel prices really mean, and whether India’s growth story is becoming increasingly fragile.

Rs 40,000 for more babies? Chandrababu Naidu’s plan is misguided | LME 137 | Pooja Prasanna

Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu wants people to have more children. The AP government is now offering Rs 30,000 for a third child and Rs 40,000 for a fourth. At first, this may sound like just another political headline. But behind it lies a real anxiety shared by many southern states — falling fertility rates, ageing populations, shrinking workforces, and fears of losing political representation in the future. But can governments really solve these problems by simply asking people to have more babies? From Andhra’s demographic fears and delimitation politics to women’s unpaid labour and collapsing public infrastructure, this episode of Let Me Explain looks at the bigger questions behind Naidu’s population push.
