Madhya Pradesh Urban Administration Minister and senior BJP leader Kailash Vijayvargiya has triggered a political controversy after claiming that the Taj Mahal was originally a temple that was later converted into a tomb by Mughal emperor Shah Jahan.

The former leader is serving a 27-year sentence for plotting a coup after losing the 2022 presidential election.

2025 saw political shifts with Nitish Kumar retaining power in Bihar and Siddaramaiah navigating a leadership tussle. While Nitin Nabin and Chirag Paswan rose, the Congress faced defeats and internal strife. Arvind Kejriwal’s AAP lost Delhi, and Prashant Kishor’s political venture faltered, highlighting power’s dynamic nature.
