The next thing everyone would want to know, how much support did Jadavpur enjoy in Delhi? The city, not the government?
In the near two-decades that Antara had spent in Delhi, several residents had made it clear to her that the city was never the same after Mrs G. This was to be expected, given the convulsive riots it suffered, or the fact that BT's House was supposedly given away to Fergie in the mid-1980s, or even Air India's Kanishka disaster in June 1985, "this will be a game-changer", Antara's mother had predicted, and she was often correct. (The flight was on a Montreal-London-Delhi route. Trump remained excited about Canada.)
Thus, one could assume, that even if they felt disempowered, the older residents of Delhi would not support Jadavpur's plans for instability.
Which left the other Delhi residents and as Antara had found out at Asansol AG Church, there was one aspect to them that Kolkata liked: they didn't like Jews, they were anti-Semites. If they were anti-Semites, their biggest problem was the US intelligence community. This was Delhi since 2012, what the London-based PR firm had created.
