In this news bulletin, veteran journalist Rajdeep Sardesai analyses the shifting political landscape of Maharashtra following recent election trends. Sardesai observes that ‘Maharashtra has, to a large extent, become saffronised’, noting the Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP) strategic dominance over traditional regional powers like the Shiv Sena and NCP. He highlights the rise of Devendra Fadnavis, noting how a leader from a minority community in the state’s Maratha-dominated politics has become the ‘Neta number one’. The discussion explores the potential for Fadnavis to emerge as a Prime Ministerial contender for 2029, while acknowledging the current undisputed leadership of Narendra Modi. Sardesai also reflects on the ‘tectonic shift’ in Mumbai’s culture, moving from a grassroots middle-class focus to one dominated by redevelopers and contractors. The segment concludes with an analysis of the fragmented opposition and the possibility of future political realignments between the Pawar and Thackeray factions as the BJP continues its expansionist strategy across the state.
