  • 526: Election Chaupal: Students of Assam Say No to Communal Politics
    Assam votes in the first phase of Lok Sabha Elections 2019 on 11 April. Two more phases will follow on 18 and 28 April.
    So, what are the big election issues in Assam? To find out, The Quint reached Assam. Through our My Vote Chaupal, we have been giving a voice to the Indian voter. Because we truly believe that elections are not about the politicians but about the voters who choose them by making an informed choice.
    In this edition of My Vote Chaupal, we spoke to a few students of University Law College, Gauhati University. And here the mandate was clear – the biggest issue in the elections is the Citizenship Amendment Bill 2016 (CAB). The bill was not passed in the Parliament and it lapsed.

  • Can Strategic ‘Space’ Help BJP’s Nationalist Cause in Elections?

    On Wednesday, 27 March morning, Prime Minister Narendra Modi created a buzz in newsrooms across the country when he put out a tweet saying he would be addressing the nation later with an “important message”.

    The tweet predictably brought back memories of his last address in 2016, when he had announced the demonetisation of high-value currency notes.

    There was all-around anticipation about a similar big-bang announcement once again. Coming ahead of next month’s crucial Lok Sabha election, it was a given that the prime minister’s message was essentially aimed at setting the agenda for the coming polls, boosting the BJP’s electoral prospects, and showing the Congress in poor light. So, when PM Modi finally went on air to tell the nation that India had become the fourth nation to bring down a live satellite with an anti-satellite missile, the announcement failed to generate any excitement.

  • Rahul Gandhi’s NYAY Is Not Only Feasible, It Is Absolutely Crucial

    Rahul Gandhi has pulled off an ‘Indira Gandhi’. His grandmother nationalised banks, abolished the privy purse and fought the 1971 elections on the Garibi Hatao platform. Rahul is fighting 2019 on the idea of a Minimum Income Guarantee aka NYAY. He has promised five crore poor families a minimum income of Rs 12,000 per month. That will work out to an average ‘top-up’ of Rs 6,000 per month or Rs 72,000 per year.

  • Manohar Parrikar: The Genial ‘Sanghi’ Whose Smile Hid the Saffron

    Manohar Parrikar, who passed away on Sunday evening after a valiant battle against cancer for a year, was unlike many of his colleagues in Bharatiya Janata Party. He was not the archetypal Sanghi who spouted Hindu nationalism by the hour or wore saffron on his sleeve, yet Parrikar’s devotion to the ideals and agenda of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) was second to none.
