How the SIR deletions affect the Bengal election results? Were certain categories of voters targeted and if so, what were the consequences?
Does the analysis of Bengal elections suggest any lessons for the forthcoming state elections?

@RKRadhakrishn@TVKVijayHQ@INC exited a long time alliance with the @arivalayam , only to find themselves in this position. It is increasingly looking unlikely that @TVKVijayHQ will cede them the national space in exchange for regional dominance. Would Cong not have been better off with DMK
@sujitnair90 I am reminded of a competition called “Turncoat” during my university days where the debater argues in favour of a topic and after a couple of minutes with the jury ringing the bell, the speaker immediately argues against the topic.
Fourteen years ago, on London’s Olympic pristine blue turf, India finished dead last. I believed the team was no good, the worst in history. I got it so wrong. All the while our forwards were looking down the pitch, mistaking their own centre-halves for a patch of artificial grass.
A decade and a half went by analysing structural data, complaining about fragile defences, understanding penalty corner conversion percentages and writing thousands of words on the mental frailty of Indian hockey. Even blamed the selection committee, the Federation. We also blamed the lack of grass-root infrastructure.
And all along, bloody hell, it was just a visual glitch.
I think we owe an apology to Michael Nobbs. And Roelant Oltmans. And Terry Walsh, Sjoerd Marijne, Graham Reid, and every high-performance director drawing tactical diagrams on a whiteboard between 2012 and yesterday.
Hockey India’s official explanation is mind-boggling piece of scientific rationale: the blue-on-blue blend was compromising “on-field clarity and visibility”. One can only imagine Craig Fulton and Harmanpreet Singh’s faces when the realization must have struck: “They can’t pass to each other because they literally cannot find each other!”
So, bleed out the “Blue” legacy that so magically carried us through decades of heartbreak and triumph; bring in high-visibility Saffron and the forwards will shine like neon lights on a blue pitch in Amstelveen and Belgium. Unlike, 2012 London, we won’t be passing to a ghost now!
Just by the way, Pakistan, known as the green shirts, won the 1982 Asian Games, 1994 World Cup and the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics playing Green-on-Green.
So, bring on the Saffron. If the 2026 World Cup campaign goes south, at least nobody can claim we couldn’t see it coming. #hockeyx

@sunileo@FinanceBuddha@metaindia I face the same issue. Have blocked innumerable IDs , but they always end up spamming with possibly a new ID. As a country we seem to be ok with these. DND registers don’t seem to have an effect at all.
@joybhattacharj This summarises all that is wrong with Indian sports and how instead of focusing on development of sports, officials are busy finding ways to fight elections. No wonder almost all sports bodies are controlled by politicians.
Reports of 1000’s of EVM burnt in a Govt building fire in Kolkata raises serious questions on the Bengal Elections 2026, after the expose on Rajarhat Newtown constituency Vote Chori.
@PTI_News@ShuklaRajiv What is the percentage of revenue from sales of tickets for IPL? I am sure it would be insignificant. Given this why would the finals be taken away from the city of the current champion? More importantly why are almost all matches being held at Ahmedabad?
@SirKazamJeevi It is a reflection tion of the party that nominates them as their spokespersons and also the News Channels who invite them. Reasons why the credibility of the channels have been consistently hitting new lows.
TN was a regional episode. Its national consequences will play out slowly — in every seat-sharing talk, every alliance meeting, every moment Congress needs a partner to trust them.
The bridge is burned
Was it worth it?

I support Rahul Gandhi. I believe he is fighting for something real and important.
But the party that is supposed to be his vehicle cannot simultaneously hold the constitutional torch and practice overnight convenience.
DMK deserved better. The INDIA alliance deserved better.
