BMC Election 2026 | ED Vs TMC | NEET PG Cutoff Controversy | 5Live With Sonal Mehrotra Kapoor

On a Special Report, anchor Sonal Mehrotra Kapoor covers multiple national headlines, leading with the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) elections held after an eight-year gap. The broadcast examines the low 57% voter turnout and a significant controversy involving allegations of marker pen use instead of permanent ink. The program then turns to West Bengal, where the Supreme Court has stayed police FIRs against the Enforcement Directorate (ED), questioning if state agencies can shield against central probes. Another major topic is the Health Ministry's decision to slash NEET PG qualifying cut-offs, with some categories reduced to zero percentile, sparking a debate on medical education standards and methods to fill 18,000 vacant seats. Additionally, the report highlights an 'India Today Impact' where the Punjab government issued show-cause notices to hospitals following an exposé on irregularities in the Ayushman Bharat Yojana scheme.
