Optics is an integral part of Prime Minster Narendra Modi's persona and there is a southern focus to it, especially since the dawn of 2024.

Six months ago, few leaders, even in the Congress and the INDIA alliance, would have thought that the mighty K Chandrashekar Rao (KCR) and his Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) would be defeated in Telangana.
