Telangana CM K. Chandrashekar Rao is in Delhi for two-day yagna that will conclude with official launch of the office of his renamed party, Bharat Rashtra Samithi.
Telangana govt-appointed SIT submits fresh evidence against BJP's top gun in court. The senior leader's name had figured in a remand report & SIT had named him as accused last week.
The Telangana MLC responds to being figured in the ED's remand report as one of the accused in Delhi liquor scam case, & dared PM Modi to keep her & other leaders in jail & prove they are guilty.
Denying BJP MP Dharmapuri's claims that she had called the Congress president, Kavitha Kalvakuntla challenged him to contest against her in polls, threatened to 'slap him with slippers'.
With an aim to dent BJP voter base, Telangana CM considers sending a team of MPs, MLAs, MLCs to Gujarat where polls are due next month; BJP says it will turn out to be a futile exercise.
Senior BJP member K Laxman says TRS made Munugode bypoll battle of 'prestige', pumping in over Rs 500 cr to ensure victory. For 2023, he says, BJP will focus on mass appeal of Modi.
Bypolls in Munugode were necessitated by defection of sitting MLA Komatireddy Raj Gopal Reddy from Congress to BJP. BJP put up a tough fight, experts say they relied on Reddy’s clout
However, the BJP was trailing in Bihar where the RJD has established a lead in the two assembly seats after the first round of counting. In Munugode, TRS got 6,096 votes & BJP got 4,904.
TRS MLA Rohit Reddy was told to ask for coconut water as signal to cops for action. WhatsApp chats of accused mention list of 50 TRS & Congress MLAs, says remand document.
Three 'BJP agents' held from farmhouse of one of 4 TRS MLAs they tried to lure to rival party, say cops. Both parties have been levelling allegations in run-up to Munugode bypoll.
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.
