    Two Sharp with ET: Boycott call on Türkiye grows, and what’s inside first monthly unemployment data

    India has revoked security clearance for Celebi Aviation, a Turkish firm handling 70% of Mumbai airport ground ops, following reports of Turkish drone use by Pakistan. The fallout is spreading fast: travel platforms report a 250% surge in cancellations, Bollywood unions push for bans, and Delhi's Azadpur mandi halts Turkish apple imports. CAIT and academia join the boycott chorus. India’s first-ever monthly employment data is out. The national jobless rate stands at 5.1% — but women are lagging far behind, especially in urban areas. Experts flag underemployment, lack of formal jobs, and clash with CMIE’s 7.7% estimate. Mospi defends its move, saying real-time data will help drive better policy. All of this in Today’s Two Sharp with Nisha Poddar.
