Explained: What was the Malegaon blast case and why all accused were acquitted

In this edition of India Today Explains, the focus is on several major national and international stories. A special NIA court acquitted all seven accused, including Sadhvi Pragya Thakur and Lieutenant Colonel Prasad Purohit, in the 2008 Malegaon blast case after 17 years. The programme delves into US President Donald Trump's announcement of a 25% tariff on Indian goods, with Trump stating, "they have one of the highest tariffs in the world." The show also revisits the 2009 Sharm El Sheikh joint statement, a diplomatic chapter the BJP calls a blunder. Additionally, it provides an update on Nimisha Priya, the Kerala nurse facing a death sentence in Yemen, and the efforts to save her. Finally, the show examines the deepening humanitarian crisis and famine-like conditions in Gaza, where the death toll, particularly among children, is rising due to conflict and restricted aid access.
