Dilemma of 75 : Shall PM Modi Step Down?

Every era in politics raises a question larger than any leader: when is the right time to step aside for a political leader? Prime Minister Narendra Modi,who has spent over two decades in top leadership and more than a decade as India’s Prime Minister, is now nearing the age of 75.This moment carries added weight as the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), the ideological parent of the BJP has long held an informal rule that leaders should retire from active politics at this age,a principle that has seen senior figures step aside in the past.

Now the question that lingers in the minds of every Indian, be it political enthusiasts or not is whether this milestone will mark the end of Modi's active role or will he continue to serve the nation further.

A survey conducted by Whispers in the Corridors asked people a simple yet powerful question to capture public opinion: “Shall PM Modi step down after 75?”.In first part of the survey respondents were asked a yes or no, and in second part to further explain their reasoning.

To find out more, read full story in the September issue of Whispers in the Corridors about Indian’s opinion and the larger debate about age, leadership, and the future of Indian politics.

India to Recalibrate Ties with Tehran

Only weeks ago, as Iranian cities reeled under Israeli and American bombardments during the twelve-day war, speculation was rife in New Delhi that Ayatollah Khamenei’s regime was on the brink of collapse. But with Tehran having weathered the storm, the Indian establishment has now quietly concluded that the Supreme Leader will endure well into 2026.

Officials confirm that India is deploying every discreet channel available — from intelligence links to Track-II envoys — to rebuild a working relationship with Iran. Diplomatic backchannels are buzzing, with trusted intermediaries shuttling messages and assurances between New Delhi and Tehran. Sources say energy cooperation and regional security are already back on the table.

The calculus is clear: India does not want to be left out as Iran stabilises after the war. Quiet diplomacy has turned into urgent outreach, and the once-frayed bonds between the two capitals are suddenly swinging back with speed and purpose.

Maximum AAP and TMC leaders arrested in corruption cases

Since 2014 , when the Modi government took over the reins of the Central government, many regional party leaders have been arrested on various corruption charges ranging from - money laundering, bribery, cheating to forgery and more. Leaders of AAP, DMK and TMC were arrested on corruption charges. As per information during the said period, 4 AAP leaders, including then CM Arvind Kejriwal, Satyendra Jain, Manish Sisodia, ex- Dy CM and Jitendra Singh Tomar were arrested. Five other arrested leaders include Subrat Mukherjee, Firhad Hakim, Jyoti Priya Mallick, Partha Chatterjee and Madan Mitra. In Maharashtra, two sitting ministers of NCP= Nawab Mallik and Anil Deshmukh were arrested and in Tamil Nadu V. Senthil Balaji was arrested. Except one, all these leaders were arrested by ED and CBI. The Delhi Police arrested Tomar in a marksheet forgery case. Most would have lost their sets if the latest 130th Constitutional Bill was effective. According to experts, this is the reason that all opposition parties are against the proposed bill.

IAS Prashasti Pareek, is a 2014-batch officer of the Gujarat cadre and is currently serving as the Collector of Arvalli, Gujarat.A firm believer that “Health is true wealth”, she has placed citizens' fitness and well-being at the heart of her work in the district.

“We are working to promote a culture of fitness and sports.”she shared

Inspired by Fit India Movement,a multi-pronged approach is being implemented in the district.

First is development of playgrounds in villages and schools,largely through DMF and other available grants.

Second is renovation of old and dilapidated sports complexes “With the help of the Nagar Palika, we recently redeveloped the sports complex in Modasa.” She added

Thirdly as community driven initiative, cycling is being promoted every Sunday- an effort which has quickly gained popularity. “Senior citizens, homemakers, and youth are all actively participating. I personally join every week, and it has grown entirely on a voluntary basis, not by any directive,” she explained.

At its core, her vision rests on three pillars: Fitness, Health as True Wealth, and an Obesity-Free India, all directed towards building a healthier and more active community.

Beyond fitness, she has also launched the first phase of the Santrupti Abhiyan. “Under this the goal is to ensure that every household and every individual is covered under all relevant government schemes.” She said

Under this a comprehensive survey is being carried for beneficiary identification with the help of village-level staff, Anganwadi workers, and other local resources.“This is a district-level initiative.we are converging existing funds and resources to make it possible.” she quoted

With people at the centre, her approach remains truly community-driven, turning governance into a shared movement rather than just an administrative exercise.
