Speculation is the lifeblood of political commentary. But what we’re witnessing today from a growing breed of so-called political analysts is not just lazy conjecture — it borders on absurdity. The current buzz over who will succeed JP Nadda as the BJP’s national president is a perfect example. Far from reasoned analysis, much of what’s…
As Tamil Nadu gears up for its next Legislative Assembly elections in April–May 2026, the political battleground is already abuzz with speculation, strategy, and a fair share of sensationalism. The 2021 election was a defining one—it ended a decade-long rule of the AIADMK and saw the DMK sweep to power under M.K. Stalin, winning 133…
When delusions of grandeur meet a hard wall of law MP Rabindranath The pink fortress is cracking—and this time, it’s not just a few disgruntled MLAs or electoral drubbing that’s shaking the Kalvakuntla clan, but a full-blown criminal investigation.

P. Nagarjuna Rao UK’s Field Marshal Bernard Montgomery, who knew a thing or two about real war, once said: ‘Any man who goes to battle without fear is a fool.’ He didn’t have Rahul Gandhi in mind, of course. But it is a quote that fits the Wayanad warrior like a bespoke Italian kurta. The…
Just when you thought the Kalvakuntla family had exhausted its stock of political drama, in comes K. Kavitha with her latest one-woman show: “Jagruti is as powerful as BRS.” If this were a comedy special, it would be sold out in seconds. But alas, it’s just another tired episode in the long-running soap opera titled…
MP Rabindranath In the aftermath of Pakistan-sponsored terrorists murdering 26 innocent tourists in Pahalgam, India responded with unprecedented force. The military retaliation was swift, decisive, and unequivocal—a signal to Islamabad that the era of strategic restraint is over.

M P Rabindranath How much more proof does India need to declare the Trinamool Congress (TMC) a national security threat?
