Robots compete in the cheerleading final during the World Humanoid Robot Games in Beijing on Monday. Tribal women carry bundles of firewood on their heads along a forest trail in Nadia, West Bengal, on Monday. People offer prayers on the last Monday of the holy month of 'Shravan' at Mahadev Temple in Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh, on Monday. People take part in a 'Kanwar Yatra' procession on the last Monday of the holy month 'Shravan' in Ajmer, Rajasthan, on Monday. Children look on at a Pookalam, a floral rangoli, at the Kerala State Council for Child Welfare as part of Onam celebrations in Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, on Monday.

Plain Speak

“We are contesting the elections on the plank of development. We are all one. Some go to temple, some to mosque, gurdwara and church. But we are all Bharatiya and the country is above everything else for us.”

Nitin Gadkari, Leader, BJP



“Devendra Fadnavis has given a call for “dharma-yudh of votes. I am asking the Election Commission, does dharma-yudh fit in with your model code of conduct? The BJP that grew due to the sacrifices of its workers who dedicated their lives to the organisation has now become a hybrid, a breeding ground for opportunistic politics.”

Uddhav Thackeray, Leader, Shiv Sena (UBT)


“Their disinterest about the welfare of women is out in the open for everyone to see. The videos of Patel and Mahadik have reached every household. It appears that the BJP’s top leadership wants to trigger riots in the state. It is unfortunate to see the top leadership of the country, whose primary responsibility is to ensure religious harmony, resort to such politics of polarization.”

Balasaheb Thorat, Leader, Congress


“The MVA is an opportunist alliance, just like the TMC in West Bengal. Both rely on family politics and exploit one community as a vote bank. This community’s population has been steadily increasing from 14 per cent in Bengal in 1951, it has reached 32 per cent. Similarly, in Jharkhand, their population has risen from 9 per cent to 24 per cent. This is the result of appeasement politics.”

Suvendu Adhikari, Leader, BJP
