More than 1.2 lakh internal documents from inside Uber have revealed that the company, between 2013 -2017, bypassed regulators, exploited loopholes, secretly lobbied with officials, and put pressure on governments to rewrite laws.

As part of its 8th collaboration with the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ), the Indian Express spent 4 months investigating these documents, now being called The Uber Files. The documents were first obtained by The Guardian and then shared with ICIJ, and newsrooms in 30 countries including the BCC and the Washington Post.

In this episode, investigative journalist Ritu Sarin joins host Shashank Bhargava to talk about what the Uber Files have revealed.
