- Description
- West Bengal Elections 2026: West Bengal Elections 2026: In West Bengal, the BJP won 207 out of 294 Assembly seats, while the TMC secured 80 seats. One of the biggest talking points of the election was the deletion of 27 lakh voters under the SIR adjudication process. These voters were allegedly unable to cast their votes.
What impact did the removal of these 27 lakh names from the voter list have on the West Bengal election results? On several seats, the number of deleted voters was many times higher than the victory margin. Did this shift the balance of power? How did the BJP gain an edge in Muslim-majority areas? Did the adjudication deletions alter the winning equations of the 2021 victors in 2026?

- One Year of Operation Sindoor: Ex-Army Chief MM Naravane Recalls Indian Media's Misreporting
- Date posted
- 3 days ago
- Description
- “By speculating on possible future courses of action, you're also sort of revealing what could happen… You may unknowingly be actually divulging what we were thinking of doing.’”
Former Army Chief M. M. Naravane delivers a sharp warning on the dangers of hyper-nationalist TV coverage, AI-generated visuals, and “sutron ke aadhar par” journalism during sensitive military situations. Reflecting on the media environment around the aftermath of the Pahalgam attack and Operation Sindhu, he says excessive speculation and sensationalism don’t just create panic — they can compromise operational thinking itself.
Naravane points out that credibility is the first casualty when channels prioritise drama over facts: “It was always better to under-report than to over-report.” He also criticises performative coverage — from air raid sirens in studios to unverified viral claims — for manufacturing fear and uncertainty among ordinary citizens.

- Why did the Narendra Modi-led BJP government bring the Women's Reservation Bill even though it had already been passed with the Opposition's help in 2023? The reason is that it was only a trick to carry out delimitation ahead of the 2029 Lok Sabha elections. So far, delimitation has taken place in Assan and Jammu and Kashmir. In both these places, the exercise has led to gerrymandering, or manipulation to benefit the BJP. How was this done? Will this happen nationally? Watch this video to find out.

- Description
- West Bengal Election Result 2026: After 15 years, Mamata Banerjee’s government has been voted out of power in West Bengal. For the first time, the BJP is set to form the government in the state. But how did this happen? The answer lies in the “M Factor” — Machh (fish), Mahila (women), Machinery, and Muslims. This essentially sums up the results of the West Bengal Assembly elections.
The letter “M” has long been deeply connected to Bengal’s politics — whether it is “M” for Mamata or her famous slogan “Maa, Maati, Manush” (Mother, Motherland, People), which helped her end the 34-year rule of the Left. And now comes “M” for Modi, who, by sitting on a boat in the Ganga, managed to deliver a powerful message.

- Date posted
- 7 days ago
- Description
- Exactly three months ago, Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi was seen waving an unpublished memoir of former Chief of Army Staff MM Naravane in the Parliament, leading to a massive political uproar. Reason? Claims of alleged 'spinning of narratives' by the Indian government on China during the 2019 Galwan clashes. Naravane was the Army Chef then.
“I’m not aware of where they have got that manuscript from. And if they’ve got that manuscript from somewhere, they could have changed it also.”
Naravane claims that he had not seen the leaked excerpts himself, adding, “I have not seen my own book, which is being shown... I don’t know how people are showing it.”
On the claims that the government had given the military a “free hand,” Naravane clarified, “I don’t think it is, you know, do whatever you want. Do what is appropriate at that point of time.”

- Partner | Learning gaps in classrooms don’t always look obvious. Sometimes, they show up as hesitation, confusion, or a child quietly falling behind.
At a recent @ShikshaIndia event, parents stepped into their children’s shoes to experience what learning can feel like when concepts aren’t fully understood. Through interactive activities and conversations, the event explored how these gaps begin, why they often go unnoticed, and what difference timely support can make.
Impacting over 1crore children, over 21 years, P&G Shiksha continues to work to #EraseTheLearningGap by focusing on early identification and timely support, helping children learn at their own pace and build confidence over time.

- Real Story Behind Women's Reservation Bill: Modi Govt's Failed Move to Change India's Electoral Map
- Date posted
- 20 days ago
- Description
- Why did the Narendra Modi-led BJP government bring the Women's Reservation Bill even though it had already been passed with the Opposition's help in 2023? The reason is that it was only a trick to carry out delimitation ahead of the 2029 Lok Sabha elections. So far, delimitation has taken place in Assan and Jammu and Kashmir. In both these places, the exercise has led to gerrymandering, or manipulation to benefit the BJP. How was this done? Will this happen nationally? Watch this video to find out.

- Should India be wary of Islamabad mediating between Washington and Tehran? TCA Raghavan, former Indian High Commissioner to Pakistan, says no. In an exclusive interview with The Quint, Raghavan explains that "overthinking" Pakistan’s role is a mistake. He argues that New Delhi should prioritise the outcome over the messenger since ending the conflict is firmly in India’s national interest, and any path to peace—even one through Islamabad—is a win for New Delhi.

- ‘Put It in the Law’: Owaisi Questions Seat Distribution in Delimitation | The Quint
- Date posted
- 24 days ago
- Description
- AIMIM MP Asaduddin Owaisi raised concerns during the delimitation debate in Parliament. Referring to Home Minister Amit Shah’s statement that Telangana could get 25 seats, Owaisi urged the government to put such assurances into the law, not leave them as verbal commitments.
‘Why don’t you write it in the law? You are saying trust me…’
He also questioned the impact of delimitation on representation, asking:
‘If this is not gerrymandering, then what is it?’
Citing examples from Assam, he claimed constituencies with significant Muslim representation were altered, affecting electoral outcomes.
Owaisi warned that changes in constituency boundaries could shift political power and weaken federal balance, and urged the government not to alienate communities and states.

- ‘Women Catch Liars Easily’ Priyanka Gandhi Slams PM Modi on Women Quota Bill | The Quint
- Date posted
- 24 days ago
- Description
- Priyanka Gandhi launched a sharp attack on the Modi government during the debate in Lok Sabha on delimitation and the Women’s Reservation law. While supporting 33% reservation for women, the Congress leader raised serious questions about why the implementation is being tied to delimitation—a process that could significantly reshape political representation across India.
At the centre of the debate is a key concern:
If Lok Sabha seats are increased after delimitation, who decides how power is redistributed? And why delay women’s reservation until then?
Priyanka Gandhi argued that linking reservation to delimitation raises doubts about intent, calling it a move that could impact the balance of democracy.

Modi government is said to bring a bill for delimitation of constituencies. So far it has been implemented in Assam and Jammu and Kashmir. Different criteria has been used in the two states. In J&K population was given as a pretext to reduce proportion of Muslim majority seats. In Assam, Muslim majority seats were reduced despite higher population. The population criteria will now be used to reduce representation of southern states and Punjab.

- When Residents of a Mumbai Colony Opposed Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar Buying Land in a 'Brahmin Locality'
- Date posted
- 26 days ago
- Description
- Social Activist Anand Teltumbde narrated the story behind Rajgriha in an interview in October 2025: "Imagine, Hindu Colony was a typical upper-middle-class Brahmin locality. Babasaheb Ambedkar acquired two plots here in Hindu Colony: one was this corner plot, where Rajgruha stands now, and the other was in the Third Street. So, he had to face a lot of opposition; all the Brahmins in the neighbourhood opposed it—the entry of a Dalit in their midst. Vitthalrao Gadgil was also living in the same colony. He was a minister in the Nehru Cabinet. He supported him and helped him acquire this land in 1930. Ambedkar then constructed it. It is said that the entire structure was designed by him. He constructed the bungalow with all that imagination. The first floor was entirely for his library. His personal library had over 50,000 books."
