Yogi 2.0: New Caste Equations
Elections, and the politics surrounding them, are not a finite event. They don’t just come once in five years. Every day is a step towards the next one...even the first day. When Yogi Adityanath took oath for his second term on March 25, in a grand ceremony at Ekana stadium in Lucknow, the way he rearranged his team offered a classic example of that. Caste equations and the imperatives of regional balance, keeping in mind the Lok Sabha election in 2024, were the decisive factors in the ministerial choices—some of which had the stamp of New Delhi.

THACKERAYS IN THE CROSSHAIRS
Anger flowed in rather rich metaphors in the Maharashtra assembly on March 25. “Put me in jail. I am not Krishna, but can you say that you are not Kansa?” a visibly agitated Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray told the somewhat stunned gathering of legislators. “If you want to come to power, do that. But don’t do all these vicious things to come to power,” he added. It was a rare emotional outburst for a normally sedate politician. What makes Uddhav so angry? His own words contained the clue: graft charges, hovering over his people like an ominous cloud.

THE DAKMASTER NEXUS
Two months ago, West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee was working on an altogether different plan— aspiring to be numero uno on the non-BJP side in Indian politics, displacing the Congress. The Trinamool Congress’s foray into Goa, her confabulations with key Opposition figures, her party’s statements against the GOP, all of it presaged an ambitious expansion strategy. So a strike on her turf was only to be expected. Two gruesome murders and a carnage within the span of a month— between February 18 and March 21— have offered that opening to her rivals.
