THREAD: This week on #TheIndiaFix ⬇️

For the past few months, a single thread has featured in politics across states: what sort of pension scheme should apply to government employees? scroll.in/article/103786…

In several states, the Congress and the Aam Aadmi Party have promised a sop to babus in the form of increased pensions. This involves a return to the so-called Old Pension Scheme, as it existed before 2004. scroll.in/article/103786…

So far, Rajasthan, Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand and Punjab have passed orders to restore the old regime. The matter is a key issue in the upcoming #GujaratElections and the just concluded #HimachalPradeshElections.

@rajeshmahapatra

Last evening, we had an engaging, insightful #space on Phase 1 of voting in #UPElections and what to expect going ahead
Most participants predicted big gains for @samajwadiparty n allies. @BJP4India in a tight spot in many seats earlier considered safe.
#Thread on key takeaways👇

➡️ In the 58 seats that went to polls Thursday, voter turnout was 60% (excludes postal ballot), slightly lower than 63% in 2017
➡️ Urban voting was subdued, which could be bad news for @BJP4India
➡️ Higher turnout in villages seen as favouring @samajwadiparty

#UPElections

➡️ Jat votes have reportedly consolidated more than expected in favour of SP-led alliance
➡️ In some places, BJP seen losing support among key caste groups such as Gurjars n Sainis which overwhelmingly supported the party in 2017
