Assembly Election 2024 Updates Live | 'Objectification, outraging modesty of women not a small problem,' says Shaina N C on Arvinf Sawant's remarkHello readers! The political heat seems to intensify with each passing day in both Jharkhand and Maharashtra, with assembly elections being right around the corner. Himanta Biswa Sarma is going all-out to prove he can handle election responsibilities apart from being a chief minister. Sarma's "Upcoming election is for saving 'Sanatan' in Jharkhand" comment has drawn ire, with a BSP candidate filing a complaint against the Assam CM 'for disturbing communal harmony'. Fadnavis, on the other hand, tried to put up a calm face regarding the rebel BJP workers within Maharashtra.

Injustice to Farmers - Ata Chalnar Nahi: Maharashtra Congress launches a hard-hitting ad targeting the NDA over lack of support to farmers

The ad also takes on the Mahayuti over false promises and corruption. The Deputy Chief Minister's failed pet project "Jal Yukt Shivar" has been dubbed "Jal Mukt Shivar" through the advertisement.
With farmer's anger simmering across the state, this ad will help the MVA focus public outrage against Mahayuti's anti-farmer policies. With the election merely weeks away, this sharpened focus on farmer issues is likely to cost the Mahayuti dearly.
