Tejashwi Yadav spent months dominating headlines with fiery rhetoric — promises of “10 lakh jobs by Diwali,” a slick “MY” rebrand (Mahila-Yuva, they claimed, though the old Muslim-Yadav scent lingered), and sharp jabs at “Sushasan Babu” Nitish Kumar. For a while, it seemed like Bihar was his to take. Then came November 14, 2025: counting…
The ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup 2025 was nothing short of a national epiphany. On November 2, 2025, in a finale that gripped the country like no other, the Indian women’s team etched their name in golden letters by winning their first-ever World Cup title, defeating a resilient South African side in a nail-biting contest…
The adage, “Doing the same thing over and over while expecting different results is insanity,” perfectly captures the Indian National Congress’s (INC) self-inflicted crisis in Indian politics.

It should feel deja-vu moment for some because it relies on the exact same strategy that led to the repeal of the three farm bills in 2021. This toolkit provides a step-by-step…
