About this issue
Highlights of India Today English issue dated February 23rd, 2015. The Cover Story this week, 'Clean sweep in the capital', is a detailed account of the Aam Aadmi Party's landslide victory in the Delhi Assembly elections and the challenges it is set to face in the near future. In pursuit of fulfilling the promises that the party made during the campaigning, AAP knows it will have to carefully calibrate the great expectations of its voters. In the guest column, economist and psephologist Ashok K. Lahiri says that after promising the world in its 70-point Action Plan, the AAP should now marshal its resources to deliver the goods without harming the state's fiscal health. In the World Cup Special, Sachin Tendulkar takes us from 1996 to the 2011 edition of the tournament. He says he never imagined what the celebrations would be like after Team India lifted the World Cup. Sachin advises the team to stay focused on their performance as a billion-plus hopes rest on the uncanny ability of the low-on-form Team India to turn things around. In his column National Interest Shekhar Gupta compares AAP to a "smart tech start up" which disrupts the established giants. But he says it's not clear if the other political giants get this. Calling AAP a work in progress, he says the party is evolving like the Congress in its early days, with the right, left, even libertarians under its umbrella in pursuit of a common idea, not ideology. In the Nation section, 'A Parking Lot for heroes' speaks about how for nearly seven months, the army has used a derelict spot in the car parking of the cargo complex of Delhi airport's Terminal 2 to receive its martyrs after the Bureau of Civil Aviation and Security declared 'Shradhanjali Sthal', a reception area constructed by the army to receive the coffins of the deceased soldiers, out of bounds. The Special Report, 'Wings for a slogan', deliberates on the need to bridge the gap between intent and action as Narendra Modi's Make in India pitch for defence is set to roar at the Aero India 2015 show in Bengaluru. The issue also has three supplements: Woman, Simply Mumbai and Simply Gujarati.
