Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge and Prime Minister Narendra Modi shared a light-hearted exchange at the wedding reception of Supriya Sule's daughter at 6 Janpath in Delhi. The event drew a galaxy of political stars who turned up to bless the newlyweds. NDTV reports that Kharge told PM Modi, 'Thoda badal gaye ho' ('You have changed a bit'), prompting a smile from the Prime Minister. The brief moment of banter between the two leaders, often on opposite sides of the political spectrum, was captured by cameras.
The Kharge-Modi banter is being spun by some as proof that Indian politics is just friendly theatre. That is lazy. Opponents can share a laugh without diminishing their sharp ideological divide. What matters is not the smile but what happens after. Watch if this warmth translates into any legislative cooperation in the next Parliament session, or if it remains an isolated photo-op.
