MODI SHIFTS COCKROACHES
“But politics shifts when the story shifts. If the government can make young people believe again that effort is rewarded, the cockroach will fade into a footnote.

Governments seldom fall because they lose the streets. They fall when they lose the story. The cockroach has not rewritten Indian politics. It has done something more unsettling. It has opened the first real crack in the story that carried Modi for a decade, and it has proven very hard to kill.”
