PDA Takes Center Stage: Akhilesh Yadav Hints at Independent Path Amidst Alliance Uncertainty – Flaunt Post
The continued existence of the alliance in India is in danger due to a verbal clashing match between the leaders of the Samajwadi Party and the Congress over seat distribution, which is currently raging. In a recent social media post, SP Chief Akhilesh Yadav made a key indication of the alliance’s diminishing influence by alluding to the 2024 Lok Sabha elections while noticeably excluding the INDIA alliance.
The Congress’ unexpected decision to not give any seats to its INDIA ally in the Madhya Pradesh assembly elections exposed the disparity between these two political groups. The Samajwadi Party said that they had been cheated out of seats in the Assembly elections by the Congress and felt deceived. Akhilesh Yadav and the Congress have responded to this with bitter criticism, which has resulted in both parties running candidates against one another in 18 of the state’s constituencies.
Recent actions by Akhilesh Yadav, including a calculated and symbolic social media post, have caused serious concerns about the alliance’s future. An image of a Samajwadi Party worker with the party’s emblematic red-and-green colours painted on his back is featured in the post. This artwork has a strong message that goes with it: “Mission 2024. May the memory of Netaji (Mulayam Singh Yadav) endure eternally. “PDA” will stand for winning the next election. Akhilesh Yadav is dedicated to providing the impoverished with justice.”
The post’s mention of “PDA” is noteworthy. In the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, Akhilesh Yadav has been loud in highlighting the importance of the PDA in defeating the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA). The acronym stands for Pichde (backwards), Dalits, and Alpasankhyaks (Minorities). Akhilesh Yadav seems to be indicating that he plans to run for office on his own in the next elections, not depending on the contentious alliance with the Congress, by repeating this phrase and its meaning.
With the announcement of the Congress’s Madhya Pradesh candidate list, tensions between the Samajwadi Party and the Congress reached a breaking point. Akhilesh Yadav suggested that the Samajwadi Party might not have been as open to the INDIA bloc if they had known the alliance did not extend to the state level. He further accused the Congress of fooling other parties. The INDIA bloc, according to the Congress, is mostly in favour of central-level politics with an emphasis on the Lok Sabha elections.
Akhilesh Yadav, who was clearly unhappy, went on criticising the Congress and questioned who would support them if they carried on acting in this way. He continued by pleading with the Congress not to betray the Samajwadi Party and asking them to be clear about their objectives with the coalition. Akhilesh Yadav mentioned the party’s recent endorsement of a caste census in a final jibe at the Congress, saying it’s amazing how the party now supports it. He emphasised that the Congress now seemed to understand the need to win over backward castes and tribes when earlier it had been reluctant to share caste data.
To sum up, there appears to be a widening divide between the Samajwadi Party and the Congress, as seen by Akhilesh Yadav’s recent social media post and his increased focus on the ‘PDA’ concept. Their political partnership’s future is still up in the air, and it appears that Akhilesh Yadav is ready to go it alone in the next Lok Sabha elections by enlisting the help of the marginalised communities that make up the ‘PDA.’ The political landscape in India may be significantly impacted by this event as parties realign and adjust their strategies.

Sarah Burton has officially redefined Givenchy. In her Fall 2025 debut at Paris Fashion Week, the former Alexander McQueen creative director brought a feminine perspective to the legendary house, embracing strength, vulnerability, and emotional intelligence. This moment felt significant—not only because of Burton’s storied past but also because so few women currently helm major luxury brands.
A Tribute to Givenchy’s Heritage
Burton’s inspiration came from Hubert de Givenchy’s 1952 debut collection, known for its clean, graphic silhouettes. A recent discovery of the maison’s archival calico patterns further fueled her vision, leading to designs that balanced wearable ease with dramatic, couture-like elements.
The show opened with a black fishnet catsuit, a bold reset before transitioning into the essence of Burton’s Givenchy—a collection that honored the past while embracing modern femininity.
Key Looks & Defining Elements
Oversized Suits with Cinched Waists → A powerful balance of structure and fluidity.
Sleeveless Dresses with Ruffled Hemlines → Adding movement and drama to everyday elegance.
Cocoon-Like Coats & Jackets → Featuring rounded, puffed-up shoulders, nodding to Givenchy’s classic volume play.
Body-Diverse Runway Casting → One of the few Paris shows this season to feature a range of body types, reinforcing Burton’s commitment to dressing real women.
A New Vision for Modern Women
Burton’s Givenchy is about more than just clothes—it’s about how women want to feel: powerful, sexy, vulnerable, and strong, all at once. Her debut collection wasn’t just a runway success—it was a statement on the future of fashion, where femininity is both celebrated and redefined.
For Fall 2025, Nicolas Ghesquière took Louis Vuitton on a journey—literally. His latest collection transported attendees to a train platform, drawing inspiration from cinematic railway moments like Casablanca, Brief Encounter, Snowpiercer, and 2046. The setting? The soon-to-reopen L’Étoile du Nord train station near Gare du Nord in Paris, reinforcing the romanticism of travel through fashion.
A Vision of Travelers Through Time
The collection imagined travelers from different eras, dressed in Ghesquière’s futuristic Vuitton aesthetic. Some looked like commuters, others like luxury vacationers boarding the Orient Express, decked out in elegant outerwear and opulent layers. The result was a mix of wearable technical pieces and high-fashion statements, all rich in detail and storytelling.
Key Looks and Standout Pieces
Wearable, Technical Outerwear → Practical yet stylish, featuring subtle Vuitton branding.
A Voluminous Bordeaux Red Tulle Skirt → Paired with an ’80s-style leather belt and a pale blue LV checked ukulele case.
Black Robe with Ostrich Feathers → Dramatic and timeless.
Layered Floral Gowns → Adorned with crystals and velvet dévoré, evoking a sense of luxurious nostalgia.
Mona Tougaard’s Deep Forest Green Dress → Featuring black lace detailing, perfect for the red carpet.
Knitwear with Exaggerated Shoulders → A futuristic take on classic structured silhouettes.
Oversized Suede Hiking Jackets → Blending practicality with high fashion.
Kraftwerk x Louis Vuitton Collaboration → A special capsule collection themed “Trans-Europe Express”, featuring bags and apparel designed with the German electronic music pioneers.
An Intoxicating, Transportive Collection
With cinematic drama, luxurious craftsmanship, and a celebration of travel, Louis Vuitton Fall 2025 proved to be a masterful fusion of nostalgia, futurism, and wearable luxury. The collection wasn’t just about clothes—it was about storytelling, transforming the runway into a voyage through time and style.
