Today's Video Focus: One of the greatest challenges facing India is the creation of new jobs
for its rapidly expanding workforce.
The current government, led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, has pledged
to achieve this in a country that will in the next few years surpass
China as the world's most populous.
It's led to a heated debate within India about what exactly Mr Modi has
promised and how you accurately measure employment for an economy with a
vast informal labour force.
As elections approach in India, our Reality Check team will be following
the campaigns, addressing claims and unpicking the facts around
contentious policy issues.
Focus of the Day Article:

They want to scrap the requirement that “reasonable grounds” are needed before a person can be subjected to a search, amid mounting concern over knife attacks.
