Re: Road to the 2024 Elections in India-1
The very fact both p Patel and d walse-patil are revolting suggest old fox is the main sutradhar of this game. These 2 do not even breathe without explicit permission from fox. Something big is happening behind curtains. I just hope BJP is playing it with all eyes ears open.
