'The mother of all marches'
Reports from Caracas as Venezuela's opposition supporters march against President Maduro
After a fortnight of violent demonstrations in Venezuela, the opposition describes today's protests in the capital Caracas as the 'mother of all marches' - accusing President Maduro of resorting to dictatorial measures to quash popular outrage over the country's deepening economic crisis. We hear from people at the march and from correspondents.
Also on the programme: a court ruling in India involving three veteran BJP leaders due to face trial; and we get the latest on two very large objects, an asteroid hurtling through space and an iceberg sitting calmly in the sea off the shore of Newfoundland.
