Bihar never disappoints when it comes to political drama. Caste wars, last-minute alliances, and leaders switching sides faster than cricketers changing jerseys—everything is part of the script. But the 2025 Assembly elections promise something even more entertaining: the Congress-RJD combine campaigning not on jobs, not on development, but on a bizarre slogan— “vote-chori” (vote theft)….
Can there be a bigger political farce than Kerala’s Communist government choosing to play host to the Global Ayyappa Sangamam at Pampa? A party that once criminalised and brutalised Ayyappa devotees now wants to preside over their summit — if this is not hypocrisy, what is? Adding insult to injury, Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan even…
The so-called “mass burial” conspiracy at the Dharmasthala temple was more than just a bizarre crime story. It was an audacious attempt to smear one of Karnataka’s most respected Hindu pilgrimage centres, a test case to see how far anti-Hindu narratives could be pushed. But in the end, the episode has not only collapsed under…
Politics in Karnataka has long thrived on temple turf wars, but the storm around Dharmasthala—one of South India’s most revered shrines—has taken an extraordinary twist.

As someone who has spent decades observing and reporting on the Congress party, I can say this without hesitation: honesty and Congress politics have never been compatible. The party’s moral compass has always been set, not by principles or performance, but by the only currency it truly values—loyalty to the Nehru-Gandhi dynasty. That is how…
As the Election Commission rolls out its nationwide Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls, the political temperature is boiling over. The exercise—aimed at removing deceased voters, duplicate entries, and illegal migrants from Myanmar and Bangladesh—has become the latest punching bag for the Congress and its allies. But the irony here is rich. For years,…
Politics, I tell you, never fails to surprise. Especially now. One moment you’re sipping chai while watching NATO leaders nod politely in Brussels, and the next thing you know, Donald Trump is back in the White House, tweeting threats, slapping tariffs, and declaring wars (mostly trade ones, for now) like he never left. The man…
Telangana Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy seems to have had a sudden spiritual awakening—no, not the kind that leads to personal enlightenment, but one that leads straight to the BC vote bank. And lo and behold, at his side is the eternal yatra-yogi, Rahul Gandhi, now pretending to carry the cross of social justice that…
The political atmosphere in Karnataka appears deceptively calm, but beneath the surface, tensions simmer with the potential to erupt into a full-blown crisis for the ruling Congress party. For now, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah seems to have retained his seat, having weathered yet another intra-party storm—this time stirred by none other than his deputy and state…
Tirupati: Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu on Saturday called for the elimination of plastic to protect the environment, claiming that “excessive use of plastic can lead to cancer”.
