Arijit Bose

New Delhi / Patna: India, a land of diverse landscapes and even more diverse ideologies, has long been a stage for political theater. And what could be more theatrical, more evocative, than the ancient tradition of the padyatra – the foot march? In recent years, we’ve witnessed two such grand processions: Rahul Gandhi’s Bharat Jodo Yatra and Prashant Kishor’s Jan Suraj Padyatra.

New Delhi: The Enforcement Directorate’s (ED) relentless interrogation of Robert Vadra isn’t just a legal drama; it’s a political earthquake shaking the foundations of the Indian National Congress.
