Arvind Kejriwal

Arvind Kejriwal's name has reportedly emerged as the actual authority functioning behind the curtains in Punjab.

While AAP has claimed credit for Punjab’s rise in the education sector, the timeline suggests the state’s improvement may have begun before the party came to power in 2022. The AAP government was sworn in in March 2022. But some key surveys or studies have cited the data prior to 2022. It raises the question: Does the AAP government deserve the actual credit, or are they riding on someone else's work? 

AAP alleged that Gujarat workers were being threatened through fake ‘IB calls’, but the police probe has now led to the arrest of the party’s own Vadodara city president, exposing an alleged case of internal factionalism rather than state intimidation.

This episode focuses on a pattern, the weaponisation of public pressure against state institutions, particularly the judiciary. When people with large social media followings launch coordinated campaigns to delegitimise sitting judges, manufacture or manipulate evidence, and publicly refuse to participate in the judicial process, they are not practising Satyagraha. They are systematically undermining public trust in institutions that safeguard ordinary people far more than politicians.

A court cannot be declared illegitimate after you have petitioned it and lost. That is forum shopping wrapped in a khadi shawl, not civil disobedience.
