Trust is at the core of any country that is steeped in federalism. The central and state governments have to work together to ensure sustainable and inclusive growth across the country. Legislations enacted by Parliament have to ensure that the interests of all regions are taken into account. How strong is the federal structure in India? Does the legislative process ensure that the interests of all regions are equally represented? How can disruptions in Parliament be minimised? A special session hosted by PAFI
Moderated by Vikram&nbsp;Chandra, the panel includes-&nbsp;Dinesh Trivedi,&nbsp;Member of Parliament Rajya Sabha,&nbsp;TMC,&nbsp;Priyanka Vickram Chaturvedi,&nbsp;Member of Parliament, Rajya Sabha and Deputy Leader,&nbsp;Shiv Sena,&nbsp;Swapan Dasgupta,&nbsp;Member of Parliament,&nbsp;Rajya Sabha,&nbsp;BJP Kalikesh Narayan Singh Deo,&nbsp;Former Member of Parliament,&nbsp;BJD

In the first match on Super Saturday, Royal Challengers Bangalore will be looking to brush aside Rajasthan Royals as the Virat Kohli-led side aim to remain in the top four of the points table. Considering their last game against Rajasthan, which RCB won by 8 wickets, Virat Kohli will be very confident to go back home with two points. The batting slot of AB deVilliers could one again be under the scanner after he was dropped to number 5 in the loss against Punjab. The Rajasthan Royals, on the other hand, will be desperate for a win as they are seventh on the points table. The overseas players, Joss Buttler, Steve Smith and Ben Stokes, need to fire if Rajasthan wants to qualify for the playoffs. Steve Smith's men can be easy pushovers but the Jaipur-based side will be looking to shake that tag off.

Television news is becoming more polarized than ever, and what used to be 9PM news updates have turned into shouting matches where either you love your country or you're anti-national.
While on the surface, it seems like anchors are pushing out their own agendas, is there a deeper reason as to why they choose to present news in a certain manner? Does the business model of television news have something to do with it? And what does the future look like for aspiring journalists?
In conversation with Chirag Chinnappa, Vikram Chandra, Founder of Editorji and former TV-anchor, breaks down these questions and gives us a glimpse of the realities behind the camera.

As Covid-19 cases soar steadily across India, the question on everyone's mind is when will we get our hands&nbsp;on the vaccine.
Three vaccine candidates are currently in Phase 2 and 3 clinical trials in India, and here's your complete lowdown on what they are...
First up is Covaxin.
It's India&rsquo;s first indigenous Covid-19 vaccine, created by Hyderabad-based Bharat Biotech in collaboration with the Indian Council of Medical Research and the National Institute of Virology,&nbsp; Pune.&nbsp;The vaccine is currently in Phase 2 clinical trials.&nbsp;Covaxin falls under the class of inactivated antibodies. In this vaccine, the microbe is &lsquo;deactivated&rsquo; so that it can no longer cause infection in the host, but portions of the inactivated virus can be distinguished by human body as a foreign object and trigger an immune response, thereby producing antibodies.
Ahmedabad-based pharma company Zydus Cadila&rsquo;s antibody ZyCoV-D is the next big contender.&nbsp;This vaccine uses a plasmid DNA that can recreate autonomously.&nbsp;This plasmid DNA will be introduced into the host cells, where it would be translated into the viral protein and elicit a strong immune response.&nbsp;It is currently in Phase 2 human clinical trials.
The third contender and potentially the one that will be on the market the earliest, is the vaccine created by Oxford University and Astra-Zeneca.&nbsp;The Serum Institute of India has got a green signal from DCGI for phase 3 clinical trials of ChAdox1-S in the country.&nbsp;This vaccine uses what is known as a "non-replicating viral vector".&nbsp;Scientists have essentially genetically engineered a harmless virus to look like the SARS-CoV-2.&nbsp;In this case, they have used an adenovirus that usually infects chimpanzees and gives them the flu.&nbsp;The virus&rsquo; genetic code is altered to insert a gene from SARS-CoV-2. This gene contains instructions to produce the spiked proteins that SARS-CoV-2 uses to enter human cells.&nbsp;A single jab or two, spaced a month apart, and the body's immune system gets to work, which brings us to the next question.&nbsp;
 Who will first get the Covid-19 vaccine in India?
The unanimous answer globally is that first recipients will be frontline healthcare workers directly interacting with Covid-19 patients.&nbsp;But there is no straight answer to which population group comes next.
The World Health Organisation in June came out with a tentative plan of &ldquo;strategic allocation&rdquo; of the vaccine.
It said after healthcare workers, priority should be given to adults above 65 and those with co-morbidities such as cardiovascular disease, cancer or diabetes.
The govt has set up a National Expert Group to decide this. Two key issues &mdash;logistics and distribution are still being deliberated on by the govt.
How it will be procured and stored? How it will be made available? These are some questions we still don't have clear answers for.&nbsp;
How much will the vaccine cost? Will people be able to afford it?&nbsp;The Serum Institute has set a ceiling price of $3 per dose for the proposed Covid-19 vaccine, which is below Rs 1000 for about 3 doses.
The company has partnered with the Bill &amp; Melinda Gates Foundation which will provide a risk funding of $150 million to GAVI i.e. the Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunisation, to help manufacture up to 100mn doses of the vaccine.
