In the wake of the resounding victory of the BJP in the Delhi Assembly elections, a political slugfest started over the impact of the results on the crucial "Battle for West Bengal" in 2026.

- AGENCIES

The Delhi results have emboldened the BJP leaders in West Bengal. According to the Leader of the Opposition in the Assembly Suvendu Adhikari, the BJP's success in the Bengali-dominated pockets at Delhi is especially significant on this count.

"Delhi results is a lesson that unity of common people is important for ending any misrule anywhere, If the people of West Bengal get united too, the end of Trinamool Congress misrule in West Bengal will also be inevitable," Adhikari said.

Where the Moon sails the river

n Kartika Purnima, when the full moon spills itself over the Mahanadi and its sister rivers, Odisha becomes a single long, luminous sigh. The night is at once festival and elegy: lamps drift like small stars, miniature boats glide like secret letters, and the water takes the moon’s light and keeps itas memory.
