We consume data on a daily basis from multiple sources and in various formats. Often due to this excessive number crunching and overload of information, the most important messages from data are lost. Polstrat’s objectives include creating methodologies and processes that will help channel a solution-oriented approach and better decision-making.
Through “Statistically Speaking” we hope to use political, social and economic data and analyses to judge the mood of the Indian Public. While Coronavirus cases in India continue to climb, the country is gearing up to hold the first state election in the middle of the pandemic. The Election Commission has announced various measures to ensure the safety of voters including ensuring that voters wear masks and extending polling timings. As we inch closer to the elections, we take a deep dive into the political history of Bihar. Through a series of articles, we will explore the rise of regional parties in the state, the eras of domination of Lalu Prasad Yadav and Nitish Kumar, as well as the caste-wise voting patterns and party inclinations in the state.
