billion investment in data centers. Legal and political tensions
also surface through the quashing of defamation
charges against Rahul Gandhi, Mamata
Banerjee’s dispute with the Election Commission, and the
breach-of-privilege hearing for comedian Kunal
Kamra. Regional stability is addressed via the reopening
of tourist sites in Jammu and Kashmir and a global
sporting appeal for the humane treatment of imprisoned former
