Read MoreShreejaya’s Debut in Politics What made her debut particularly significant was the context. Earlier that year, her father Ashok Chavan made a surprising political move—he left the Indian National Congress, the party his family had served for generations, and joined the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). The decision sent ripples across Maharashtra’s political circles. For Shreejaya, it meant carrying the burden of both legacy and transition.

Read MoreSulabha and her Constituency Sulabha Ganpat Gaikwad is a Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) politician from Maharashtra who currently represents the Kalyan East constituency in the state legislative assembly.

Read MoreKalpana and Indian Politics Kalpana’s transition into politics came at a moment of crisis. In January 2024, former Chief Minister of Jharkhand, Hemant Soren was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate in connection with an alleged land scam. This incident created a political vacuum within the JMM, leaving party workers and supporters anxious. For Kalpana, the turning point arrived in March 2024, when she publicly declared her intention to step into political life.

The decision stirred attention, given the constituency's long-standing association with her father-in-law’s political legacy. Purnima Reclaimed the Seat Jamshedpur East, once a BJP bastion, slipped from its grasp in 2019 when Raghubar Das was unseated by Independent Saryu Roy.

Residential areas, hospitals, and schools were hit, leading to mass casualties among non-combatants. Women and children suffered the most; many were killed, severely injured, or left homeless as entire neighbourhoods turned to rubble. Displacement camps became overcrowded with scarce food, water, and medical aid, exposing survivors to disease and hunger. Countless children were orphaned, traumatised by the violence they witnessed. In addition, both sides reportedly took civilians as hostages for leverage, leaving families shattered and living in fear. The war created a humanitarian catastrophe
