4:20 pm In a huge, sprawling city like Houston, with millions of cars and drivers, getting into an accident seems like a routine incident for the unfortunate few. What is worse is having an altercation with someone over an issue regarding a car, like with a tow truck driver, a pedestrian or a break in. Harris County Asst DA Lauren Bard in charge of Vehicular Crimes Division calls in today to explain what kind of crimes are prosecutable and how to defend yourself.

5:00 pm For over 40 years, the India Culture Center has toiled to keep Indian heritage forefront in the community’s mind, especially through celebration of two national flagship events. One of these, Indian Republic Day, is around the corner and the ICC will mark it with a festival on Sunday, Jan 28. To tell us more about it are ICC directors and event chairs President Parul Fernandes and Director Uma Mantravadi.

5:20 pm This past summer, Taral Patel threw his hat into the race for Ft Bend Commissioners Court Pct 3 and should he win he will become the youngest elected Commissioner, possibly in the state! Born and brought up in Sugar Land, he joins us today to tell us how the run is going as the March 5 Primary election rolls closer.

5:40 pm Today is Lohri, a popular winter Dogra and Punjabi folk festival celebrated primarily in Northern India with bonfires, dance and song. Pandit Bhawani Shankar Shastri with the Hindu Worship Society calls in to tell us briefly the significance of the festival.
