'Hindu counter-polarisation for BJP rooted in...': Yashwant Deshmukh on WB polls
Halfway through the West Bengal elections, a controversy over Trinamool Congress' poll strategist Prashant Kishor's leaked chat caused a storm.
One of the statements made by Kishor, as released by BJP, involved a declaration that 'if there's a vote, it's for Hindus, for polarisation, and for Modi'.
Pollster Yashwant Deshmukh decodes this statement, and how political parties in India have used appeasement and polarisation politics to win votes.

Usha Vance made history as the first Indian-American and Hindu Second Lady of the United States as her husband, J.D. Vance, was sworn in as the 50th Vice President. The couple's love story began at Yale University, where J.D. credited Usha as his "spirit guide," helping him navigate the challenges of Ivy League life. Their bond grew stronger over the years, with Usha supporting J.D.'s political journey and their growing family. Usha's dedication to her family and her impressive career as a corporate litigator made her a prominent figure at the inauguration. President Donald Trump later praised Usha for her intellect, even joking that he might have chosen her as Vice President instead of J.D
