1. Chacha vs Chacha vs Bhatija vs Pitaji
The Samajwadi pari-war became an episode of Bigg Boss and we want our money back! There were tears, there was rage and Mulayam thought the best solution is to say "beta Akhilesh apne chacha ko ek jhappi do" but the UP CM stormed out foot stomping. But let’s take a minute to get over the memes and the social media humour to remember that this is a ruling party of the largest and one of the most important states in the country. Mulayam needs to stop placating and start acting decisively.
Akhilesh or Shivpal – who's it going to be?
2. The Name’s Tata, Ratan Tata
Meanwhile, another fued was breaking out. This time in a Mumbai boardroom. Cyrus Mistry has been removed as the chairman of the Ratan Tata Group, announced a short, terse press release. Ratan Tata is back at the helm of affairs for the next four months. Performance issues and other controversial business decisions are bound to be identified the root cause of this upheaval in one of India's biggest corporate houses.
3. Big Win for the Women Who Fought to Enter Haji Ali
Another nail has been struck in the coffin of patriarchy today, women of India rejoice! The Haji Ali Dargah Trust that had previously banned women from its inner sanctum has today caved and caved in big, telling the Supreme Court that it will now allow women in, in a month's time. Thanks and congratulations to every woman who agitated, and the BMMA for campaigning hard!
