MP Rabindanath
Few political slogans have defined the Bharatiya Janata Party’s rise as sharply as its relentless attack on dynast or parivar politics. Prime Minister Narendra Modi, more than anyone else, has weaponised this narrative—projecting himself as the antithesis of inherited power, a leader who rose from the margins, armed only with merit, discipline and political instinct….
As a Political Analyst, I still believe the Constitution Matters A screaming headline in a local daily jolted me—not as a citizen alone, but as a political analyst who still naïvely believes that constitutional morality should matter in a republic. The report said Telangana Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy wants to seek the Congress high…
At some point, political rhetoric must yield to historical truth. Telangana today finds itself at that inflection point—especially after Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy’s latest claim that Christians, particularly in Telangana, should be “thankful” to the Congress and Sonia Gandhi for the creation of the state. It is a sweeping assertion, heavy on gratitude politics…
For decades, Kerala has been treated as a political terra incognita for the Bharatiya Janata Party—a state where the Communists ruled the roost, the Congress survived through alliances, and the BJP remained a peripheral force with vote share but no real power. That assumption has now been decisively shaken. The BJP-led NDA’s capture of the…
The Congress party, still reeling from its humiliating defeat in the recent Bihar Assembly polls, appears to be drifting toward yet another internal storm—one that Prime Minister Narendra Modi had prophetically hinted at when he said that “another split in Congress cannot be ruled out.” At that time, many dismissed his remark as political rhetoric….
Indian politics has always tolerated ideological somersaults. But every few years, the ballot box delivers a brutal reminder that even seasoned players cannot outsmart voters forever. The latest Bihar assembly verdict is exactly that kind of reminder — especially for two veterans who once walked out on the BJP-led NDA, only to return wiser, chastened,…
Telangana’s political temperature is rising sharply as the state inches toward local body and civic polls. And at the centre of this storm sits the KCR family, once the unchallenged power axis of Telangana, now increasingly cornered by investigative agencies, political rivals, and their own internal fissures. The aura of invincibility that surrounded the BRS…
The bypoll rout in Jubilee Hills has done what years of internal murmurs could not: force the BJP to confront its own strategic drift in Telangana. And the message has come not from an outsider but from one of its most combative personalities—suspended Goshamahal MLA Raja Singh—whose blunt assessment of the party’s performance has gone…
The Congress party’s political mask has finally slipped, this time not by the BJP’s accusations or by public perception, but by the admission of its own Chief Minister. When Telangana’s A. Revanth Reddy told Muslim voters that “Congress hai to Muslims hai, bagar Congress Muslims kuch bhi nahin,” he was not merely speaking in the…
Some politicians speak sense, some who speak nonsense — and then there’s Priyank Kharge, Karnataka’s Minister for IT and Rural Development, who seems to have made ignorance his political trademark. When the son of Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge recently questioned the “talent” of Gujarat and Assam, he wasn’t making an offhand comment — he was…
