The roaring crowd, countless flashes of camera, a gold medal around the neck, and a wide grin – the bespectacled Hriday Chheda was the toast of India nearly two years back. Hriday was the part of India’s historic gold medal winning equestrian dressage team at the delayed 2022 Asian Games in Hangzhou. Riding atop the Chemxpro Emerald, a horse brought on lease just months before the continental Games, Chheda led the field individually at the half-way mark. Eventually, Hriday and Chemxpro Emerald were the second-best performers in the four-member Indian team, notching up a score of 69.941, only behind Anush Agarwalla and Etro’s 71.088 points. He returned home to a grand welcome. Young riders at the Amateur Riders Club, Hriday’s base in Mumbai, mobbed him eager to tap into his experience. He met the Prime Minister, was honoured by the state and central governments. For the next few months, life was in a fast lane. But everything soon fell back to normal. “I mean, my life hasn’t changed in anyway,” Hriday quipped in a conversation …

BJP to project Modi as Hindu Hriday Samrat in Lok Sabha polls: Shashi Tharoor

Published by Webster

Congress leader Shashi Tharoor said on Friday that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is set to contest the 2024 Lok Sabha polls on the issue of Hindutva by projecting Prime Minister Narendra Modi as the “Hindu Hriday Samrat”. In a post on X, Tharoor noted that Modi is set to inaugurate the Ram temple in Ayodhya on January 22 and the BAPS Hindu Temple in Abu Dhabi on February 14, following which the general election would be announced. The Congress MP from Thiruvananthapuram said the 2024 Lok Sabha elections are shaping up to be a Hindutva versus popular welfare battle, and questions on economic growth, creating two crore jobs a year and putting disposable income into the pockets of every Indian need to be debated. “The message is clear.

In 2019, with that narrative collapsing in the wake of the disastrous demonetisation, the Pulwama terrorist attack gave …
