'Former cricketer Navjot Singh Sidhu claimed that his wife beat Stage IV breast cancer thanks to a special diet of neem leaves and alkaline water. Ashwini Vaishnaw, Union Minister for Railways, recently shared a video of a travelling ticket examiner performing CPR on a fully conscious elderly passenger. These incidents would be amusing if they weren't so dangerous. A peculiar brand of medical misinformation that comes with an official stamp of approval is at play here. It speaks volumes about the state of scientific literacy among our leaders. This is the result of a carefully cultivated ecosystem where scientific temper has been systematically dismantled. The transformation of fringe theories into institutional policy was so gradual that many missed it. It started with our scientific institutions being demolished. Having replaced scientific temper with superstition, we're now watching the cost being calculated not in crores, but in preventable tragedies,' says Karanjeet Kaur, journalist and former editor of Arré, in this week's column.

1. Congress is caught in a big crisis, being unable to decide between Siddaramaih and D K Shivakumar --after impressive win in Karnataka; Shivakumar camp is firm that he should be given the opportunity to head the government as he had revived the party organisation at a time when it was hit by defections and desertions. His supporters also pointed out that Shivakumar enjoyed the backing of powerful caste groups such as the Vokkaligas and Lingayats. They also argued that Siddaramaiah's emphasis on personality-based politics did not make him a team player, and alleged that the supporters of the former Chief Minister had sabotaged the election of former KPCC chief G. Parameshwar from Koratagere in 2013. However, supporters of Siddaramaiah argued that he not only enjoyed the support of the majority of the newly elected MLAs but is also responsible for Congress' mass outreach among AHINDAs, an acronym for the rainbow coalition of religious minorities, Other Backward Classes and Dalits. 2. In Rajasthan, young Sachin Pilot, then Congress chief in the state, was seen to have led the party to victory in 2018 but the Gandhis, as seen often, chose the old guard, in Ashok Gehlot, for the CM's chair. It was a decision that has kept the Rajasthan Congress divided into two, though unequal, groups. Pilot mounted a mini-revolt against the party but couldn't pull off his coup in 2021 because Gehlot had the numbers. However, Gehlot's revolt in 2022 was by no means mini: he said a defiant no to becoming the Congress national president, a one-stone-two-birds ploy of the Gandhis aimed at clearing up Rajasthan for Pilot. A similar conundrum was seen in Punjab where Navjot Singh Sidhu, as state party chief, was leading the 2022 assembly election while his bªte noire, Amarinder Singh, was the CM. On the eve of the polls, the Congress played the Dalit card by making Charanjit Singh Channi the chief minister but the Amarinder-Sidhu and anti-incumbency mess was too much to be cleared by such last-minute gimmicks. The AAP won the border state, one more step toward replacing the grand old party as India's potent opposition force. 3. Will Karnataka set the political mood for 2024 Lok Sabha elections? The results of the Karnataka Assembly elections has given the much-needed momentum to the entire Opposition camp--not just the Congress but other parties who believe that the recent crushing defeat to the BJP juggernaut has proved that no citadel is completely impregnable and no leader is invincible.The fact of the matter is BJP did not do well in Karnataka, Rajasthan, Chhattisgarh and Madhya Pradesh in 2018 Assembly elections but it still swept the four states in 2019 Lok Sabha elections #Karnataka #siddaramaiah #dkshivakumar #BJP #Congress #RajasthanElection #MadhyaPradeshElection #chattisgarhElection #Election2023 #SachinPilot #AshokGehlot #RahulGandhi #SoniaGandhi #PriyankaGandhi

The Aam Aadmi Party is headed for a massive win in Punjab, with trends showing the party leading in at least 92 seats in the 117-member Assembly at the time of recording this podcast.  It has been decades since any party in the state has secured such a vast majority with the last instance being way back in 1962, when the Congress had won 90 seats and then a close recreation was in 2017, when they won 77 seats. Bhagwant Mann, the AAP's CM face in Punjab, who won from the Dhuri assembly constituency with a margin of over 58,000 votes and said that he will put Punjab back on the development track.  And away from AAP's spotlight are the opposition heavyweights which include Congress's Charanjit Singh Channi and Navjot Singh Sidhu, former CM Capt Amarinder Singh, SAD's Parkash Singh Badal, all of whom have lost from their respective constituencies.

After much anticipation and drama in the political corridors of Punjab, incumbent Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi was declared the CM face of the Congress in the upcoming Punjab Assembly elections. Making the announcement, senior Congress leader Rahul Gandhi said that it was not he who made the choice, but the people of Punjab, who said "we want someone from a poor home as the chief minister." The question of who would become the CM candidate had been festering in the Punjab Congress for months, with constant infighting between CM Channi and Navjot Singh Sidhu, who had even gone on to resign in protest earlier last year. Now that Channi has been chosen, will the Congress' plan to consolidate the decisive Dalit votes in Punjab work? Also, what is next for Sidhu?

The ongoing political crisis in Punjab Congress has drawn concern from across the Grand Old Party, pertinently on the functioning of its leadership. Just two days after the surprise resignation of Navjot Singh Sidhu, G-23 members voiced their anger on the leadership vacuum at the helm of the party, with senior leaders like Kapil Sibal stating that they are not blind supporters of the party and definitely not Ji Huzoor-23. To add to the list of worries, the party is also witnessing an exodus of veteran leaders from key bastions of Goa and Punjab just months away from the 2022 elections. Although at the same time, the party has been making some strides in inducting fresh young faces in Kanhaniya Kumar and Jignesh Mevani, the lack of confidence in the party's high command can be seen across the country.

Punjab Congress seems to have descended deeper into chaos after the surprise resignation of the state Congress committee chief Navjot Singh Sidhu, which came just two days after a new state Cabinet was announced. In his resignation letter, which was posted on his Twitter profile on 28 September, he said that “the collapse of a man's character stems from the compromise corner” and that he can never compromise on the state's future and welfare. In a video posted on 29 September, Sidhu hinted that it was the inclusion of certain politicians in the new Cabinet which led to his resignation. To add further insult to injury, none of his Cabinet recommendations were considered for the Cabinet. His resignation also comes 10 days after the ouster of Captain Amarinder Singh from the chief minister's office, a change that Sidhu spearheaded since he took on the role of Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee chief in July. Amarinder Singh has also been opposing Sidhu being the CM face in upcoming polls tooth and nail and now with news of him meeting Union Home Minister Amit Shah at at the latter's residence, there is a lot of curiosity around the possibility of Singh joining the Bharatiya Janata Party. And with taunts coming in from the BJP and AAP quarters on the Congress party's failure in Punjab and the Congress's G-23 leader Kapil Sibal also raising pointed questions on who is making the calls at the top, the party is left trying to douse fires in all corners of its house. The million dollar question on everyone's mind is, What is really happening in the Congress party? Why is the party high command unable to helm this ship?

Punjab was one of the States where the Congress was perceived to have a strong regional leader, with Capt Amarinder Singh leading the party to victory in the 2017 Assembly elections. But now he has been replaced before the end of his term. Charanjit Singh Channi, a Dalit Sikh MLA, has been sworn in as the new Chief Minister, with just a few months to go for the Assembly elections in early 2022. What prompted this vote of no-confidence, as it were, against Capt Amarinder Singh?

The political corridors in Punjab were bustling over the last two days, with the resignation of one of its oldest guards Captain Amarinder Singh on 18 September and, just 24 hours later, the surprise pick of Dalit Sikh Charanjit Singh Channi as the new chief minister. The Captain's resignation comes after months of infighting, public insults and bitter jabs between him and his political arch-rival Navjot Singh Sidhu, who had been gunning for the Captain's ouster for the better part of this year. However, the final straw towards the Captain's resignation fell after a faction of MLAs wrote a letter to the Congress high command, voicing a change in leadership and a lack of confidence in him, resulting in the former CM's public statement that he “feels humiliated” and resigning from his post. The change in guard in Punjab also comes just four months before the state heads to polls. So what are the tasks ahead the new CM? Will he be able to bring the divided party together? What lies next for Amarinder Singh and most importantly, is this signalling a change in the functioning of the Grand Old Party?

As Punjab nears its election season, the chasm in Congress between Capt Amarinder Singh and Navjot Singh Sidhu is only deepening with both factions once again publicly lambasting each other. Barely a month after Sidhu was made Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee Chief in order to broker peace in the leadership tussle within the party, far from yielding a truce, the infighting keeps bubbling over. While the Chief Minister criticised Sidhu and his "advisors" over their unsavoury comments on Kashmir and Pakistan, on the other side in the Sidhu faction, twenty-three Punjab Congress MLAs including four state ministers once again expressed the lack of faith in Capt Amarinder Singh's leadership. In a bid to douse the rivalry between the party chief and the Chief Minister, Congress' Punjab in-charge Harish Rawat met both the leaders on 31 August. While Rawat is said to have spoken to Amarinder Singh about placating the rebels, the message on the state's leadership is that the party high command is not looking to replace the chief minister ahead of the upcoming elections.

With barely eight months ahead of Punjab assembly elections, cricketer-turned-politician Navjot Singh Sidhu has been elevated as the Punjab Pradesh Congress President. The infighting in the Punjab unit of the Congress party has been making headlines for the past few weeks and the intense political drama reached a flashpoint on 17 July when Punjab Chief Minister Captain Amarinder Singh wrote a letter to Congress interim chief Sonia Gandhi, voicing his concerns against Sidhu's appointment as the party's state unit Chief. However, it looks like the Congress top brass has not paid heed to Amarinder Singh's concerns and instead went head and appointed four new working presidents, without the consultation of the CM. But will Sidhu's new appointment be the solution to end the growing factionalism and infighting in the state cadre? and pertinently, what does his appointment signal for the party's leadership?

With less than a year to go for the Assembly elections, the infighting in the Punjab unit of the Congress party has been making the headlines. The two main protagonists are Chief Minister Captain Amarinder Singh and Navjot Singh Sidhu. Punjab, incidentally, is one of the handful of states where the Congress has done well and the BJP is on a weak wicket. Capt. Amarinder is often touted as a rare Congress success story that comes when regional leaders operate with autonomy. But Sidhu has not only openly challenged Capt Amarinder's leadership, he also has the ear of the party's high command in Delhi, which seems ready to go the extra mile to accommodate him. With Assembly elections due early next year, what are the options for the Congress, which needs to resolve this conflict in order for its campaign to take off? Why does the Congress high command find it important to keep Sidhu happy? Guest: Varghese George, Associate Editor, The Hindu. Host: G. Sampath, Social Affairs Editor, The Hindu

The crisis in the ruling Congress' Punjab unit is refusing to settle as fresh dissension against Chief Minister Captain Amarinder Singh has deepened the factionalism in the party. There's been a lot of clamour in the past couple of days, against Captain Amarinder Singh's controversial decision to give police jobs to sons of two sitting MLAs on "compassionate grounds". While the Chief Minister's supporters are backing the decision saying it was the right thing to do and is “in line with appointments given to similarly situated persons in the past", another faction is fast building up against him. Five Cabinet ministers, Congress MLA Kuljit Nagra, Punjab Congress chief Sunil Jakhar as well as Punjab Youth Congress President Brinder Dhillon have all asked the government to roll back the “ill-advised move” in “greater public interest”. But this fresh infighting in Punjab Congress also comes at an inopportune moment for CM Amarinder Singh when he is already engaged in a bitter tussle with dissenting Congress leader Navjot Singh Sidhu. Mincing no words, Sidhu has called the Chief Minister a liar in interviews, and even suggested that he is hand in glove with the Akalis. With some Congress MLAs and ministers also siding with the Sidhu camp against Amarinder Singh, the Congress high command has been forced to step in to end the feud. Ahead of the 2022 state assembly elections in Punjab, does the factionalism and dissent within the party effectively put Capt Amarinder and the Congress party in a vulnerable position? What is leading to this growing dissatisfaction against the Chief Minister from within the party and what is Sidhu's role in it? Tune in!
