Political technologies and managed democracy: sharp essay by @AsimAli6. "The choreographed mob attacks on Trinamool Congress leaders, the publicised raids on alleged syndicate operatives, the police-led humiliation parade of a local ‘Muslim strongman’, the cascading exits of former regime insiders and their rehearsed denunciations of the fallen regime are all ritualised acts within an ongoing theatrical performance of Bengal’s redemption... ... Yet, as Mamata Banerjee’s protest march in support of evicted hawkers demonstrated, even a rump Opposition retains the capacity to reorient the public sphere away from communal polarisation and towards questions of livelihood." telegraphindia.com/opinion/manage…







Introducing NCPI - the new party of the 20 MPs elected on @AITCofficial symbols. Its FB page says “it helps the poor people of our society”. Really hope it manages to help these 20 not-so-poor traitors too.
