What the Delhi verdict means for Narendra Modi

Hindustan Times  

The Delhi mandate sends a clear message to the Indian domestic political system as well as India’s external partners and adversaries: Don’t be misled by the 2024 Lok Sabha setback, Narendra Modi remains in-charge. But the fact that the BJP has won Delhi for the first time under his prime ministership, that it has finally been able to dislodge the Aam Aadmi Party, possibly the BJP’s only potential competitor for the urban middle class vote, and that it now has complete control over the national capital makes the verdict far more significant for Modi than the size of Delhi would suggest. Expect a possible cabinet reshuffle, for the insecurity after the 2024 verdict led to continuity and the confidence after recent wins may well lead to changes that Modi may have wanted to make in his third term. The verdict may also give Modi the renewed confidence to push key political, policy and ideological projects that remain dear to him.
