Untitled 273 (Untitled 273)

This incisive political cartoon turns the gallery of “U.P., Orissa, Gujarat” into a triptych of power, where each doorway promises a different scale of authority yet delivers a quietly corrosive sameness. The stark economy of line and the theatrical framing make the figures read like puppets before an unseen electorate, while the swollen “CONG” bodies feel less like individuals than overfed institutions edging toward collapse. Most chilling is the final panel’s cracked surface—an allegory of governance as a brittle façade—suggesting that what shatters is not merely an image of leadership but the public faith that once held it together.
