  • Please separate playlists for national interests and cut the clutter

    Thanks a lot for the amazing content, Shekhar ji and team.

    I would love it if the national interest feed is separated from cut the clutter. I enjoy both but sometimes can’t spare the time for following everything!

  • Praveen Swami >> Shekhar Gupta

    Praveen Swami has an immense flair for detailed and interesting storytelling, whereas Shekhar Gupta’s Cut The Clutter is full of clutter and forced metaphors, it is difficult listen.

CutTheClutter: Analogue paneer,oil guidelines & food rules: Maharashtra FDA Chief Tukaram Mundhe on #CutTheClutter
Q: How do you define your job as food safety commissioner in such a large state?
I focus on implementing the food safety laws, ensuring compliance across regulations, and coordinating with regulators and industry to protect public health while addressing both good and bad actors in the system.
CutTheClutter: NTA insiders, teachers & coaching institute owners: Key characters & conspiracy behind NEET 2026 leak
Q: How did the NTA experts succeed in leaking the paper?
The experts wrote down questions on chits, memorized some, and coordinated with an intermediary who circulated the content digitally, creating a trail that linked the leak to multiple states and coaching networks.
CutTheClutter: Origin & implications of CJP protest,Sonam Wangchuk’s strike—NEET leak, distrust in education system
Q: How did the 2026 NEET leak differ from 2024, and how did investigators approach the case?
In 2026 the leak originated from the source at the National Testing Agency, and investigators retraced the trail backward from buyers to the source, tracing connections through coaching centers and individuals like Shubham Khernar and the Bilwal family to Kulkarni, who allegedly had access to the entire paper.
ThePrintAM: Why is Suzuki investing crores in Bio-CNG plants in rural Gujarat?
Q: Why is Suzuki investing in these bio-CNG plants in rural Gujarat?
The host frames the question and the guest explains that the investment is tied to a collaborative model with local dairy unions and government-backed technology partners to convert cow dung into biomethane, generate revenue from fertilizer byproducts, and leverage carbon credits as a long-term strategic move aligned with national energy and emissions goals.
CutTheClutter: How West Bengal, Tamil Nadu, Kerala & Assam election results will redefine Indian politics
Q: DK, what are your main takeaways from this?
The takeaway is a combination of BJP's organizational juggernaut, the consolidation against regional parties, and a looming BJP-vs-Congress electoral dynamic in many states, with particular attention to how election administration and alliances shaped outcomes.
