An astute, quick-witted and sharp as a tack,
One and only the great @PChidambaram_IN sir 🙏🏼
Got the oppurtunity to have a fruitful discussion regarding upcoming Goa elections.
Great sweet taste of deserved victory #NationalHerald case. Trial judge does not find it worth even taking cognisance of!!! Strangest ever case: abs no movement of money, not one inch movement of immovable property, yet per ED huge money laundering in #NH!! #AJL now owned by #YoungIndian, a not for profit co, which cannot pay dividends, cannot distribute profits, gives no perks, no benefits to its board, yet #BJP makes humongous hue & cry re ML!! Max exaggeration, excessive propaganda & zero truth has become the hallmark of the ruling dispensation. #INC #BJP #NH
Let's play this out, IF and ONLY IF what Rahul Gandhi says is the absolute truth.
In that reality, the "glitches" aren't glitches. The delays aren't coincidences. This isn't some local-level hooliganism. This is a grand, top-down architectural project to dismantle democracy.
IF this is true, then the timing of his press conference is a masterstroke. It’s not panic; it’s a calculated move to introduce a "psychological bug" into the BJP's mainframe. To make the architects of this grand design second-guess their own blueprint.
And IF this is true, then every future opposition victory must be viewed with suspicion. Did they really win? Or were they "allowed" to win to build a convenient alibi? "See, we lost Jharkhand, so how could we be rigging?" A classic gambit. Sacrifice a pawn to keep the king safe, especially when the prize is a financial fortress like Maharashtra.
But here is the ultimate conclusion we must draw, IF this is true: Then democracy is already a matter of the past. We are not voters in an election, but an audience at a grand, elaborate play where the outcome is pre-decided, and our ballots are just props.
A chilling thought. But again, this is ONLY valid IF and ONLY IF the allegation is correct.

It is an honour to be entrusted with the responsibility of serving as the National In-Charge of the Indian Youth Congress (@IYC), the youth wing of the Indian National Congress that led India’s freedom movement and guided the nation-building process.
I express my heartfelt gratitude to the top leadership of the Congress Party: Hon’ble President Shri @kharge ji, Leader of Opposition Shri @RahulGandhi ji, General Secretary (Organisation) Shri @kcvenugopalmp ji, my colleague @Allavaru ji, and to every Congress worker and citizen who believes in the values of our Constitution.
I sincerely thank everyone for their wishes and affection. In the days ahead, our task is to strengthen the politics of struggle, service, and social reconstruction on the ground.
We must together create countless "Champaran Movements" born out of truth, compassion, and people’s participation.
The position of National In-Charge of IYC is not a privilege but a shared responsibility, a commitment we all hold together.
We are co-travellers in the journey to build the India envisioned by Gandhi, Nehru, and Ambedkar.
Let us expand this caravan so that every marginalised voice, youth, workers, farmers, minorities, and women; becomes part of it, and their concerns stand at the centre of national politics.
At a time when the government in Delhi stands against the basic formula of humanity, we must keep the Preamble of our Constitution close to our hearts and raise the call for justice louder than ever.
The people’s faith in the Congress Party remains the symbol of politics rooted in equality, justice, and unity.
It is our duty to strengthen that faith. That is our true work.
Yours:
Manish
Maharashtra Election Puzzle
Fact One
On October 19, 2024, MVA alliance parties had written to the Election Commission of India that BJP is engaged in massive voter list fraud, which includes deletion of 10,000 votes of MVA supporters in each constituency.
It was also informed that BJP was adding 10,000 fake voters to hide 10,000 names being deleted by them.
It was suspected that total number of names of MVA supporters deleted from voter list after Laksabha election could be nearly 30 lakhs in the state.
Impact One
The votes of three main parties of MVA decreased by 32.8 lakhs from Loksabha to Vidhansabha elections! Is it a coincidence?
Fact Two
MVA had also informed Election Commission that BJP was also fraudulently adding new names to the list.
Impact Two
In five months after Lok Sabha elections 2024, the number of total voters in Maharashtra increased by 47 lakhs!
While, there was an increase of only 37 lakh voters in Maharashtra in five years from 2019 Loksabha elections to 2024 Loksabha elections.
The votes of three main parties of BJP alliance increased by 67.7 lakhs in assembly elections vis-a-vis Loksabha elections.
Did 47 lakh new voters contribute significantly to the increase of BJP votes?
Fact Three
Transfer of ₹1500 per month to women under Larki Behna Yojna is being talked as a major factor in victory of BJP alliance. Surveys had predicted an impact of 2-3% for Mahayuti.
Impact Three
A 3% increase translates to almost 20 lakh votes out of 640 lakh votes polled in Vidhan sabha elections.
If one removes 47 lakh new voters from Mahayuti’s lead of 67.7 votes, the lead remains 20.7 lakh! Amazing coincidence?
Fact Four
NCP, Ajit Pawar got 58.1 lakh votes and won 41 seats.
NCP, Sharad Pawar got 72.8 lakh votes and won 10 seats!
Interestingly, of the two factions of NCP were contesting against each other in 39 seats, of which Ajit Pawar party won 33!
Is this precise, robotic surgery normally possible?
Fun Facts
The vote lost by Congress and Shiv Sena (UBT) from Loksabha to Vidhan Sabha totals 47.1 lakh. New voters added were 47 lakh!

Apart from fumbles & gaffes (that we covered in Part 1), He often tries to sound intelligent by lying & making up idiotic stories. A few snippets….

There’s only 1 minor hurdle, if these cars can drag themselves on slopes, amidst the forest, uneven jungle roads, rains, etc then it could surely revolutionise the entire system.
Only you can achieve this 😊🙏🏼 @anandmahindra
1. Almost soundless, better for animals & better for tourist to spot them
2. Pollution free, better for the habitat
3. We can save enormous amount of fuel as follows :-
( 30 cars/per gate/twice a day-Total 8 such gates)
Roughly 240 cars tour twice a day (2/3)

Hello sir, yesterday I went to Jim Corbett jungle safari where I did open safari jungle tour.
One thing I noticed is that if we have EV gypsy cars instead of current petrol gypsy then it could be a game changer as follows👇🏼 (1/3)
Our PM says he’s a crusader for women’s empowerment? Time for him to rise above party politics, walk-his-talk & have the Women’s Reservation Bill passed by Parliament. The Congress offers him its unconditional support.
Attached is my letter to the PM.

Forbes is out with a major article evidencing hidden Adani promoter pledges:
A private Vinod Adani-controlled Singaporean entity pledged Adani promoter stakes for ~$240m in loans from a Russian bank.
Zero disclosure of these pledges to Indian exchanges.
