A fuming CPIM in Kerala is planning against the Union government for its refusal to declare the Wayanad landslide a national disaster. In Maharashtra, there is a key point of contention between the BJP and the Shiv Sena Shinde faction amid the squabble for the Chief Minister position. Meanwhile, in Telangana, the BRS has two major campaigns in the pipeline to target the Congress government’s financial dealings, especially those concerning MEIL.

This is Powertrip, exclusively curated for TNM and NL subscribers by Dhanya Rajendran, Shabbir Ahmed, Pooja Prasanna, and Nidheesh MK.
