Rajasthan Government

Rajasthan Politics has heated up as the first phase of urban local body elections witnessed clashes, allegations of bogus voting and disputes involving BJP, Congress and independent candidates. With the second phase scheduled for September 11, the elections have emerged as an important test of grassroots political strength.

Rajasthan’s political landscape continues to evolve as the government focuses on development and welfare, while opposition parties raise questions about governance, employment, infrastructure and regional priorities.

A tragic incident in Telangana has sparked anger among State Road Transport Corporation (TGSRTC) employees after a 24-year-old woman bus conductor, Gundla Pravalika, died following an alleged attack by a passenger. The conductor, who was seriously injured after being pushed out of a moving bus during an argument over ticket change, succumbed to her injuries after nearly ten days of treatment.

Karnataka's latest bus fare hike has triggered a political controversy across the state, with opposition parties strongly criticising the Congress government over the increased financial burden on ordinary passengers. The revised fares for state-run transport corporations have come into effect from midnight on November 4, making bus journeys more expensive for thousands of daily commuters.
