How do public figures like C. Joseph Vijay manage their image and responsibilities when involved in sensitive political issues like water sharing disputes?

Solving Cauvery water dispute (between TN and Karnataka) will be tough nut for TN CM C. Jospeh Vijay because he lacked political experience. The Cauvery water dispute is more than 150 year old problem and started during colonial era. Governments came and gone but the problem was not solved. Both state government can only approach Supreme Court from time to time to set certain quantity of water is allocated to their home state.

Even C. Joseph Vijay team never anticipated such a massive victory for filmstar-turned-politician in 2026 state assembly election. They hoped to cut other established party votes and play some kingmaker role. But they almost got majority mark and never looked back. M. K. Stalin stated on 1 May 2026, that he expected ‘good news’ on 4 May 2026, the counting day, expressing strong faith that the DMK and its alliance would retain power because he never understood mood of the state people even after polling feedbacks.

Recently his son Udaynidhi was arrested by TN government, not for making abusive comments on Hindus in the past but some comment about current CM C. Joseph Vijay. Ex-CM MK Stalin blamed current CM Vijay, saying he is still making reels!

Clearly, newcomer CM Vijay is enjoying honeymoon period. In 2015, Delhi ex-CM Arvind Kejriwal also became unexpected CM with massive mandate and he enjoyed a prolong 10 years honeymoon period with no work. One can hope CM Vijay look non-filmy issues equally seriously. His social media photos indicate that he is still close to film star colleagues and little time for administrative work.

Is Jawaharlal Nehru known as the father of the Indian Constitution?

Image
PM Nehru and subsequent dynastic congress leaders amended the constitution nearly 80 times. This way Jawaharlal Nehru can be said as the father of Indian Constitution. In almost all election rallies, congress leader RaGa creates environment of fear mongering that the BJP will change the constitution if it comes to power for third term. But same RaGa says ‘We will change the constitution to remove the 50% limit on reservations’ and ‘we will change the constitution to redistribute reservation for OBC, SC, and ST to one particular community which is congress’s core vote bank’ and ‘we will change the constitution to bring all peacefuls into the OBC’. Congress leader RaGa multiple times advocated for wealth to be redistributed as per the proportion of various sections in India’s population while speaking to people at a Nyay Manch events. BJP is useing this as more ammunition to attack the Wayanad MP and his party amid the Lok Sabha polls, questioning the communist economic model that he is ...

Do you think people will buy items from Rahul Ki Mohabbat Ki Dukan, and what will be the prices?

On 30th April 2006, 35 Hindus were lined up and shot dead by Muslim terrorists in Doda, Kashmir. Among these 35 Hindus, there was also a girl who was only 3 years old. The killers were local Muslim terr0rists, hence no killer terr0rist has been caught till date due to vote bank and appeasement politics. The then Dr. Manmohan Singh's Congress government, crossing all limits of audacity, started the despicable work of removing the army from districts like Kashmir and Doda. Even outside J&K, the situation was no better. Sri Ram Janmabhoomi Blast in Ayodhya on 5 July 2005; 29 October 2005 Three serial blasts in Delhi (62 dead); March 7, 2006 Sankatmochan Temple Blast of Banaras (28 dead); Mumbai's local train serial blast on 11 July 2006 (209 dead); 25 August 2007 Hyderabad Blast (42 dead); 13 May 2008 serial blasts of Jaipur (63 dead); 25 July 2008 Bangalore, 9 serial blasts; 26 July 2008 21 serial blasts in Ahmedabad (56 dead); 13 September 2008 Delhi, 5 serial blasts (30 dea...

Why Mamata Banerjee Is Preferring Film Stars Over Politicians in the upcoming Election?

Image
Film stars have great vote catching power due to their celebrity status. But there is a negative side to it. Physics professor will be recruited in Presidency College, Kolkata. What if Saayoni Ghosh and Shatabdi Roy (both are film star turned TMC politician) are taken? They can say, want to work for students. So, want to teach in Presidency College. Let's say, Bengal Ranji Cricket team or IPL Kolkata Knight Rider’s team needs an all-rounder. Who can be taken? Let's say actor Soham Chakarborty is taken. How will it be? They can say, I love Bengal. I want Cricket team to win for Bengal. Let's say, a close relative or friend of yours is seriously ill. Admitted to a nursing home. A serious operation must be done. As you have seen, actress Sayantika Banerjee or high profile socialite Mahua Moitra is coming dressed as a doctor. How will it be? They can say, I want to work for people, so I will do this medical operation. Surely you are thinking to yourself, what kind of fun is goi...
