Indian Politics of Defection: An Uninteresting Variant Of Dissidence

Sayani ChakrabortyAugust 2, 20220

Defections from various political parties and the resulting deviation from norms such as "loyalty is not sellable," "pluralism is to be considered worthy of respect," and "politics that endorses improvement in the spheres of non-coercion or increasing but reasonable degrees of freedom" have recently led to the melancholy expression, "we were wrong in supporting, promoting, and protecting these defectors." Congress MPs in Madhya Pradesh (MP) and Karnataka as well as the Shiv Sena in Goa and, more lately, Maharashtra are heard using these kinds of rhetoric.
