The Ambani wedding is simultaneously a minor-to-medium-intensity inconvenience and a major amusement that most of the country is undergoing on their social media feeds. But take a moment away from the loathing (self or otherwise) and you’ll see there’s one entity that has much, much more reason to be grumpy with this whole spectacle. Yes, we’re talking about the Congress party. But why?

The Congress is facing another challenge in Karnataka, where its Chief Minister, Siddaramaiah, is mired in corruption allegations. However, it’s not just the opposition that Siddaramaiah has to worry about! Meanwhile, the party’s CM in Telangana is making some political gains. So maybe these will balance each other out?

In this week’s Powertrip, exclusively curated for Newslaundry and The News Minute subscribers by Dhanya Rajendran, Shabbir Ahmed, and Pooja Prasanna, we give you the inside scoop from the political fallout of the Ambani wedding to troubles within the BRS.
