Temples, military labour markets, and land-grant regimes structured medieval caste hierarchies. Today, access to education, employment, bureaucratic categories, and media platforms do.
As the 2026 cadre policy determines allocations for 25 state cadres, parallel state bureaucracies operate under different rules with no all-India dimension.
India has a framework of policies and programmes aimed at supporting older persons, but these are under-utilised and under-resourced relative to the scale of need.
Sometimes, we end up embroidering the truth as we overthink and overanalyse a fastidious lady’s personal wardrobe preferences for significant occasions.
In AICC report ‘Real State of the Economy 2026’, Congress flags ‘central contradiction’ in economy, calls for data review pointing to jobs, FDI, manufacturing slump & inequality.
Shield AI will provide V-BAT vertical takeoff & landing drones along with licences for software, which will be integrated into aircraft and made available to select Indian partners.
No nation other than China can negotiate one-on-one with Trump on an equal footing. That’s why the middle powers who so far formed the core of multilateral bodies now feel orphaned.
Sometimes the truth is hiding in open, only some refuse to acknowledge it for ideological reasons. And these days most charlatans masquerading as journalists are ideological propaganda artists at the core.
The author seems to be providing cover to a specific lady in the garb of “2 woman CMs” . I wonder who that lady is ? I also wonder why the usual talk of anti incumbency after several terms isn’t the usual common sense answer rather than bad PR ? Is the author accepting that journalists are into PR business ? What a rubbish comparison ! Author forgets that this is land of Karma, you shall get what your actions entail. Guess what actions led to usurping of every institution from police to schools in a specific state ? Think, Ms. Bajpai, think !
To call a thoughtless inhuman dictator’s actions as bad PR is wrong on so many levels. Mamata and aatishi cant even be put in the same article.
Disappointing to see this from you.
You do great disservice to the people of Bengal by saying that mamata is a victim of poor PR.
She is not. She is the mastermind behind ALL scams, check out Kunal Ghosh’s video statements after he was arrested a few years ago for Narada/sharada.
The RG Kar case is an institutional murder with CM, health minister and police minister Mamata as sign off agency. Ask general public in WB, they will tell you, in case you don’t know.
She can’t have stood with the doctors after her pet goons unleashed this terror. Ask medical lobby in WB.
She can’t stand with qualified teachers whose jobs were stolen and sold to TMC cadre base. Ask the agitating teachers.
Mamata is deeply hated because her mask is off. No amount of PR can change her image now. We know, as should you. After all, you are in the business of possessing intelligence that general public doesn’t.
ThePrint hasnt done a good job of covering R G Kar. The least you can do now is NOT paint Mamata as a victim. She IS the perpetrator, the bully, pathological liar and a cold blooded supari-giver. Call her out for that, if you really wanna do good journalismm

Seems like the wires have come loose inside Ms. Bajpai’s head.
