Pleasantly surprised by the Indian election results. The sadhugiri was getting a little too overwrought towards the end, so this sounds to me like the electorate calling bullshit on the religious theatrics.

I won’t be so optimistic about the indian electorate, hehe. India is still a 65 percent rural country I think. What I gathered was that Yogi Adityanath was sidelined in UP and he is even a bigger sadhu. And most losses have come from there.

I had blindly assumed it was going to be a BJP rout again until I tuned into a few analysts in the last few weeks and realized there was talk of BJP flailing in the north this time. Good instance of “India disappoints the optimists and pessimists” haha
