The Samajwadi Party seems to have lost the community's support, as was evident in the 2022 assembly polls when Kshatriyas, who account for 10-12 per cent of UP's electorate, voted overwhelmingly in favour of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). My report

It's Putin's war that Russia is fighting in Ukraine. Theoretically, any war ends when one side has a decisive victory. But that rarely happens. Here are 10 possible outcomes of this conflict that’s driving the world crazy. My piece

This is a man, who now has the world holding its breath, harbouring fantasies of unlimited power. It's not without a reason. And it won't be without consequences. -

It’s a web of interlinked factors, and lines of cause & effect are often blurred. The impact is everywhere, down to you & also Chadha ji in your pados.

The real question is, whether the BJP really wants a Congress-mukt Bharat. With the surge of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), it’s in the BJP’s interest that the Congress lose seats and power but retain some of its votes. -

Don't listen to the pundits. They told you Thakurvad will dampen Yogi's chances in UP. Fact is as long as BJP ensures last mile delivery of its welfare schemes, its kal aaj aur kal will look bright.
