 "primary_query": "will dholera survive a government change",
 "verdict": "My answer is yes on the evidence, with a narrow meaning of survive. A statute, a 51-49 company, released central packages and a signed fab contract are expensive to unwind, and nobody has tried in seventeen years. Amaravati shows reversal is survivable and costs five years. Watch the paper, not the podium. Dated 25 August 2026.",
