Which state witnessed a major internal rift within the NCP(AP) over the release of the 2025 star campaigners’ list ahead of local body polls?
MaharashtraIn Maharashtra, a significant power struggle has emerged within the NCP(AP) between Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar and state party president Sunil Tatkare. The rift became visible with the release of the 2025 star campaigners’ list, which excluded many of Pawar’s close allies while prominently featuring Tatkare’s family members and associates from Raigad. This move is widely interpreted as Tatkare’s attempt to consolidate organizational control with backing from Praful Patel. The tension coincides with legal troubles faced by Ajit Pawar’s son, Parth Pawar, in the Pune land scam. Local body elections are scheduled for December 2, 2025, making this internal conflict particularly consequential.

In the November 2025 bypolls, which party won the historically NC-dominated Budgam seat in Jammu and Kashmir?
People’s Democratic Party (PDP)The People’s Democratic Party (PDP) secured a significant victory in the Budgam Assembly bypoll on November 15, 2025, breaking the National Conference’s decades-long hold on the seat since 1977. PDP candidate Aga Syed Muntazir Mehdi won by a margin of 4,152 votes over NC’s Aga Syed Mehmood. The NC’s campaign, led by Chief Minister Omar Abdullah, was undermined by internal dissent—particularly from estranged MP Aga Ruhullah, who refused to campaign. Additionally, an independent candidate siphoned off over 7,000 votes, fragmenting the opposition. The loss signals rising anti-incumbency and a potential resurgence of the PDP in central Kashmir.

His approach appealed to undecided voters fatigued by political theatrics and seeking stability. This cross-state leadership deployment reflects the NDA’s evolving electoral playbook, which leverages high-performing regional leaders to boost performance in other states.

After the Bihar Assembly election results, which INDIA bloc leader expressed concerns about the 'Special Intensive Revision (SIR)' of electoral rolls and warned it would not succeed in other states?
Akhilesh YadavSamajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav strongly criticized the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls conducted in Bihar, calling it an 'election conspiracy' orchestrated to benefit the BJP. He asserted that such tactics had been 'exposed' and would not work in states like Uttar Pradesh, West Bengal, or Tamil Nadu. Yadav emphasized the role of his 'PPTV' or 'PDA Prahari' (watchdog for Backwards, Dalits, and Minorities) in safeguarding democratic integrity.

Yadav’s stance highlights strategic recalibration efforts among opposition parties post-Bihar.
