Prashant Kishor requested four points from Congress
After days of speculation and back-to-back meetings with the Congress top leadership, the deal which Prashant Kishor and the Grand Old Party were inches away to seal fell through. HT has learnt that there were primarily four reasons why the deal didn’t materialise.
1. The Congress’s sticking point was if PK gets to handle entire communications and ticket distribution, it may infringe on others’ roles. Prashant Kishor wanted to access data to decide party tickets and strategy. This demand for an absolutely free hand did not go down well with the party.
2. Prashant Kishor wanted to report directly to Sonia Gandhi, the party’s president, whereas the party wanted him to be a member of the empowered action group.
3. Prashant Kishor desired to form a coalition with regional political parties. According to reports, PK wanted to lead alliance-formation talks with KCR, Jagan, and Mamata because he believed defeating Modi required it. However, the Congress believed that such deals could jeopardise the party’s grassroots revival in various states.
4. PK wanted to concentrate on the Lok Sabha election in 2024, but the Congress insisted that he concentrate on the state assembly elections this year and next year.
Prashant Kishor’s closeness with the Telangana Rashtra Samithi as I-Pac, the firm founded by him, will now be working with the TRS might also be another factor for Congress’s unwillingness. TRS working president KT Rama Rao has recently commented that Congress is a redundant institution.

Alice-Avinash viral clip sparks online debate
In the viral pictures and videos from a recent episode, circulating on social media, audiences have been divided about Alice and Avinash’s friendship. Since the duo is supposed to share the same bed as per Bigg per house rules, their brief ‘cuddling’ moment left a section of social media users uneasy. While some questioned the former’s commitment to her boyfriend, others called out those shaming the actor. Many fans pointed out the irony of “making baseless judgments” in an era where people advocate women’s empowerment.
Twitter divided over Alice-Avinash ‘cuddling’ clip
A Twitter post showcasing Alice and Avinash sharing the same bed as per Bigg Boss rules read, “Meet #AliceKaushik Alice claims to be in a serious relationship outside with plans of getting married to her boyfriend. Here she is cuddling & sleeping with #AvinashMishra.” A user backed the tweet and commented, “Hypocrisy next level.” While defending Alice’s personal choice, a fan replied, “They are looking cute.. Kanwar and Alice relationship is strong…He knows that he means world to her… literally…Stop your sick mind.”
A user shared a gif from FRIENDS showing Mathew Perry embracing Jennifer Anniston on-screen as they portrayed Chandler and Rachel respectively in the series.
Fan calls out judgments over Alice-Avinash friendship
A user, in his long post, wrote, “#BiggBoss18: Defend #AliceKaushik and #AvinashMishra’s Friendship! Since last night, a photo of #AliceKaushik and #AvinashMishra has been circulating widely, shared by a popular BiggBoss portal, and sadly, it’s sparked some unfair criticism. Let’s get this straight: #BiggBoss has had contestants share beds for years, often leading to discomfort at first, but many find it’s simply part of adjusting to life in the house. In today’s era, when we’re advocating for women’s empowerment, it’s disappointing to see people quick to shame a woman for a genuine, respectful friendship. Alice and Avinash have a bond that’s easy and comfortable—maybe even sibling-like! They’re friends, nothing more, and both are at ease in each other’s company. So why create an issue? Let’s choose positivity and celebrate real connections rather than making baseless judgments.”
Bigg Boss 18 airs on Colors TV every night at 10 PM, and can be streamed on JioCinema.
