NDTV Limited

Hello and welcome to a very special episode of Control All Defence, episode number 63.

We aren't in the NDTV office, instead we're at the NDTV World Summit here in the heart of Delhi.

We are not talking about the Tejas fighter.

For once.

Yes.

But this is the first episode that we've done dedicatedly on cyber warfare and AI.

So thank you for being with us, especially because this is very important to have someone like you talk to us about some of those vulnerabilities is huge because the nature of warfare we've seen here at the NDTV World Summit, if anything is proven that war is no longer just about aircraft and tanks and missiles and bullets, I think we know that now, especially with everything we've seen.

And we have seen that in Ukraine.

It really is.

We are getting this from NDTV.

And honestly, the reaction from Chief Justice Syria Khan is highly dramatic.

Very.

OK, another pivot.

Yeah.

So reporting from NDTV details how the opposition political bloc has completely revised its tactical strategy.

Right, because originally they were doing something else.

So let's look at the numbers out of the Legislative Council elections in UP.

Citing NDTV, results for 10 out of 11 seats were confirmed by late night.

The BJP won six seats and the Samajwadi Party won four.

And the timing of this is incredibly sharp, right? I mean, we are sitting just five months out from the massive state assembly polls.

earlier.

It really does.

Because as reported by NDTV, the Congress party is organizing a colossal INDIA alliance rally at Delhi's Ramli Lamidon on November 1.

And the explicit goal here is to put overwhelming physical pressure on Chief Election Commissioner Ganesh Kumar regarding that special intensive revision process.

The initiative reflects the increasing adoption of insurance solutions for gig workers helping strengthen financial security and healthcare access for a large and rapidly expanding workforce segment.

Our third story today, reported by NDTV, highlights the importance of adequate travel and medical insurance for overseas travellers.

According to the report, the Consulate General of India, Indiba has advised Indian nationals travelling to the UAE to ensure they have comprehensive health insurance coverage, including cashless treatment facilities and medical repatriation benefits.

The advisory follows instances of travellers facing significant medical expenses during health emergencies abroad.

We'll get into it more.

In fact, Angad Singh, who's been on our show before, wrote his first piece for NDTV.com. We'll put it in our show notes.

You can go and check it out where he says that collaborative combat aircraft and putting all our money and resources into that is probably going to be the only solution to bridging the numbers and the stealth and all these other gaps that we're talking about right now.

But that's for another episode.

I had the privilege of meeting him over here and interviewing him.

On NDTV, quite a few years back.

But that man gave us a legacy, a bedrock of sonar technology, which resulted in what we now operate.

The Hamsa NG on the Vishakha Patnam class, which is an active and passive sonar.
