Look at the party affiliations of the winner and runner-up.

It’d be funny if they were eg. Revolutionary Socialist Party and Socialist Revolutionary Party, or Communist Party of India and Indian Communist Party. Now it’s just… well, two parties with very different names and different politics (socialism ≠ communism) (edit: see reply comment re politics of the RSP)

Ah, I see. India has the Communist Party of India, the CPI (Marxist), the CPI (Marxist-Leninist) Liberation, the Communist Marxist Party, and the CMP-A, the Revolutionary Marxist Party, and an even greater number of socialist parties. They have aligned with and against each other through the ages, but I just posted this combination because I found it while going through last week’s election results and found it funny.
