Third eye: Not so impactful after all & name calling being called out

2 min read

What is there in caste?So far, not many people bothered to know about Karnataka Governor Thawarchand Gehlot’s caste. But his ‘Dalit’ background has come to the fore ever since he permitted prosecution of chief minister Siddaramaiah. The Congress party’s attacks on him as BJP’s puppet has not gone down well with the saffron party, which finds the comment insulting to a Dalit governor. The Congress, far from being defensive, is asking the BJP why then Gehlot has not been made a Union minister. Not so impactful after allRecently at a Nagpur tour, MNS president Raj Thackeray said if he becomes the chief minister after the upcoming assembly polls, he would “clean up the state” in just a few hours. But it looks like Thackeray forgot to say this to his own cadres. Barely minutes after he left a party meeting in Chandrapur, two groups of his cadres came to blows and began assaulting each other in the same venue over who gets an assembly ticket. Also, the meeting also saw the wallets of many senior cadres stolen in Chandrapur. Name calling being called out Recent action of BJP Rajasthan incharge Radha Mohan Das Agarwal has irked some party leaders in the state. During a recent meeting of a membership drive, senior state BJP leader Rajendra Rathor left the meeting midway. Later, when Agarwal came to address the meeting, he took on Rathor for leaving the meeting early and sought a report of all the leaders who were not present in the meeting or left early. Now some state leaders are not very happy with the public name call.
