The best Indian cartoons of the day, chosen by editors at ThePrint.

The selected cartoons appeared first in other publications, either in print or online or on social media, and are credited appropriately.

In the lead cartoon, Keshav in The Hindu illustrates how the dispute over sharing of Cauvery waters has become an electoral issue. Several Kannada outfits have called for a Karnataka bandh on 12 April as the tensions over the river’s water rise.

R. Prasad takes a dig at Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s statement on Wednesday that no other government in India has honoured Ambedkar as much as his government has.

Salman Khan’s conviction by a Jodhpur trial court in the 1998 blackbuck poaching case continues to be a dominant theme. Manjul in Mid-day questions what few others did: How did the actor escape conviction in the 2002 Mumbai hit-and-run case?

Cartoonist Sajith Kumar in his cartoon says that it was the Bishnoi community in Rajasthan, not the actor, who were actually ‘Being Human’, a brand of clothing marketed by the actor. The tribal community kept up the fight against the poaching of the endangered animals despite risks and the actor’s might.

Nala Ponnappa draws the actual election supplies shop where politicians usually hang out: so that they can avail of hooks and crooks before elections.
