MLA & former CM Luizinho Faleiro resigned from Congress Monday. He is the 13th MLA to leave the party since 2017, when it had emerged as single-largest party in Goa's House of 40.
Late CM Manohar Parrikar at one point demanded 'special status' for Goa to curb ethnic dilution. Now, BJP's Bhumiputra bill gives anyone living in Goa for over 30 years a chance to own their house.
BJP, MGP insiders say the two legislators had expressed their wish to Manohar Parrikar to be with the ruling party in return for significant portfolios.
Over generations, Bihar’s bane has been its utter lack of urbanisation. But now, even Bihar is urbanising. Or let’s say, rurbanising. Two decades under Nitish Kumar have created a new elite in its cities.
Indian govt officials last month skipped Turkish National Day celebrations in Delhi, in a message to Ankara following its support for Islamabad, particularly during Operation Sindoor.
Bihar is blessed with a land more fertile for revolutions than any in India. Why has it fallen so far behind then? Constant obsession with politics is at the root of its destruction.
