🖋️ From The Desk of Abhijeet Rane Maps, Myths and the Politics of Demography A viral claim suggests that Bangladesh has released a new map showing parts of Bihar, Odisha and the Northeast as its own. While such assertions often emerge from fringe groups rather than official channels, they reveal how cartography is frequently weaponised for political messaging. The humour circulating online—especially the satire about illegal migrants suddenly finding themselves “back in Bang

🖋️ अभिजीत राणे लिहितात राजकारणी अनेकदा माध्यमांच्या हेडलाईन्समुळे गैरसमजाचा विषय ठरतात. पण, भाजप नेते चंद्रकांत दादा पाटील यांच्यासारख्या काही व्यक्तींची खरी ओळख त्यांच्या पडद्यामागील कार्यामुळे ठळक होते. दादांनी केवळ प्रसिद्धीसाठी नाही, तर गरजूंसाठी ठोस काम उभे केले आहे. कॅन्सरग्रस्तांच्या नातेवाईकांसाठी मुंबईत सुरू केलेले 'सावली' हॉस्टेल (ज्याने ७००० हून अधिक कुटुंबांना आधार दिला), पुण्यात ओला-उबरच्या मनमानीला आवर घालण्यासाठी स्वतःच्या खर्चाने चालवलेले प्रीपेड रिक्षा सेंटर

🖋️ From The Desk of Abhijeet Rane Voter Lists in India—A Legacy of Neglect and a Call for Reform. India’s electoral rolls have long been riddled with errors—ghost entries, duplicates, and outdated records. From booth capturing to ballot stuffing, the pre-T.N. Seshan era normalized electoral malpractice. Even post-2014, despite technological advances, voter list discrepancies persist. My late wife’s name remained on the rolls years after her passing, despite formal removal re

🖋️ From The Desk of Abhijeet Rane “If anything happens to Parth Pawar, assume the state government has fallen" is a clear, though thinly veiled, response to the Chief Minister's 'no one will be saved' remark regarding the Mundhwa land scam. This is a classic political bluff. The threat, however, is hollow. Even if action is taken against Parth Pawar and Ajit Pawar's NCP exits the 'Mahayuti' (Grand Alliance), Eknath Shinde's Shiv Sena will ensure the government's survival. Fu

🖋️ अभिजीत राणे लिहितात गिरणी कामगारांचा संप: अर्धसत्य आणि वेदना. निखिल वागळे यांनी ठाकरे आणि पवारांवर गिरणी कामगारांचे नुकसान केल्याचा आरोप करणे, राजकीय भाष्य असले तरी ते अर्धसत्य आहे. गिरणी कामगारांच्या ३० वर्षांपासून सुरू असलेल्या या दुर्दैवी संपाचे मूळ त्या काळातील तीव्र राजकीय उत्साहात आहे. बाळासाहेब ठाकरे यांनी स्वतः कामगारांना इशारा दिला होता, "हा संप असाच चालला, तर गिरण्यांच्या जमिनी विकून मालक मोकळे होतील आणि तुमच्या हाती काहीच लागणार नाही." मात्र, कामगार 'कोण म्हणतो

🖋️ From The Desk of Abhijeet Rane EC’s Counter to 'Hydrogen Bomb' Claims. Rahul Gandhi's grave accusation regarding the electoral process has been met with an immediate and detailed rebuttal by the Haryana State Election Commission (EC). The EC's 15-point clarification directly challenges the basis of the 'hydrogen bomb' claims, focusing on procedural integrity. The core of the EC’s defense is the established mechanism of verification: they questioned why Congress’s Booth Le

🖋️ अभिजीत राणे लिहितात धाडसी पत्रकारिता: ₹१८०० कोटींच्या व्यवहाराचा '४० एकर' पर्दाफाश. माध्यमांचे काम केवळ सत्ताधाऱ्यांची मर्जी राखणे नाही, तर सत्य उघड करणे हे आहे. झी २४ तासचे पत्रकार चंद्रकांत फुंदे आणि संपादक कमलेश सुतार यांनी पुण्यातल्या कोरेगाव पार्क येथील ४० एकर सरकारी जमिनीच्या संशयास्पद व्यवहाराचा पर्दाफाश करून हेच सिद्ध केले आहे. बाजारभावानुसार तब्बल १८०० कोटी रुपये किंमत असलेली जमीन नाममात्र ५०० रुपयांच्या मुद्रांक शुल्कावर हस्तांतरित करण्याचा प्रयत्न सुरू असताना,

🖋️ From The Desk of Abhijeet Rane The 'SIR' Measure and National Security Imperatives. Reports of mass disappearances in Bengal, allegedly of non-citizens, highlight a serious infiltration crisis, often linked in some narratives to external powers like the CIA's 'Deep State.' This perceived demographic shift is argued to have influenced the 2024 election results against the ruling party. While navigating complex internal and external challenges—from farmer protests to geopol

🖋️ अभिजीत राणे लिहितात राजकीय नामकरण: नरेंद्र मोदी आणि 'बाबुभाई' ते अहमद पटेल. १९८९-९० च्या अहमदाबाद लोकसभा निवडणुकीच्या निमित्ताने काँग्रेसचे लोकप्रिय नेते 'बाबुभाई' पटेल यांच्या राजकीय कारकिर्दीला मोठे वळण मिळाले. भाजप आणि संघपरिवाराने त्यांची लोकप्रियता कमी करण्याची जबाबदारी तत्कालीन तरुण कार्यकर्ते नरेंद्र मोदी यांच्यावर सोपवली होती. मोदी यांनी बाबुभाईंच्या विरोधात पुरावे गोळा करताना त्यांचे खरे नाव उघड केले. त्यांनी जाहीर सभांमधून ते नाव वारंवार उच्चारण्यास सुरुवात केली

🖋️ अभिजीत राणे लिहितात 'व्होट जिहाद' आणि राजकीय दुटप्पीपणा. निवडणुकांच्या काळात 'ईव्हीएमची भीती' किंवा 'मतचोरीची ओरड' ही नेहमीचीच असली तरी, भाजप नेते आशिष शेलार यांनी उपस्थित केलेले 'व्होट जिहाद'चे आकडे गंभीर आहेत. ३१ मतदारसंघांत २ लाखांहून अधिक मुस्लिम आणि ख्रिश्चन दुबार मतदार आढळल्याचा आरोप, ही केवळ मतदारांच्या यादीतील चूक नसून 'धर्माच्या आडून लोकशाहीवर हल्ला' करण्याचा प्रयत्न असल्याचे सूचित करते. या आरोपांमुळे, महाविकास आघाडीच्या नेत्यांच्या मतदारसंघांवर थेट प्रश्नचिन्ह उ

🖋️ From The Desk of Abhijeet Rane Revocation of Sanad: Upholding Professional Integrity. The revocation of a lawyer's 'Sanad' (license) is a grave measure governed by the Advocates Act, 1961, specifically Sections 35 to 38. This action is reserved for serious misconduct, such as violating professional ethics, misleading clients or the court, using forged documents, contempt of court, or criminal acts. The case involving Advocate Asim Sarode highlights the stringent expectati

From The Desk of Abhijeet Rane When Silence Becomes Complicity. In the age of social media, truth no longer waits for prime-time news. Viral videos now expose the rot—be it a cop hurling a nameplate or a leader shielding the guilty. The system’s apathy is no longer hidden; it’s livestreamed. Ministers offer hollow promises while police stations turn away the common man. If not for digital outrage, how many crimes would have been buried? When Sharad Pawar casually admitted to

🖋️ From The Desk of Abhijeet Rane Breaking News—Baramati’s Burger Diplomacy. In a development that may alter the course of human civilization, McDonald’s has opened a store in Baramati—and none other than Sharad Pawar graced it with his presence. ABP Majha, in a heroic act of journalistic urgency, reported this earth-shattering event… online. Shockingly, their Marathi TV channel failed to broadcast it, depriving millions of viewers of this existential revelation. How will t

🖋️ From The Desk of Abhijeet Rane Temples, Identity, and the Politics of Opposition. The Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams’ (TTD) decision to build 5,000 temples in Dalit localities—funded not by taxpayer money but by its own corpus—has sparked sharp criticism from Andhra Pradesh Congress chief Y.S. Sharmila. Her labeling of the initiative as “RSS ideology” reveals not just policy disagreement but a deeper discomfort with the cultural reclamation it represents.The project, back
