Trending News & Politics YouTube Shorts in India today

YouTube’s News & politics chart for India, filtered to Shorts and re-ranked by how fast each one is gaining views rather than by its total. The day's stories cut to under a minute, moving faster than any other chart.

This is the English-titled slice of the chart: titles are screened for English and the rest are left out.

Make a video on today’s #1 trend

#1 right now: A male bird flies thousands of kilometers for 15 years, only to be reunited with his partner.

In this refresh: 24 Shorts from 24 channels. The fastest is gaining 1.4M views a day; the median is 416.7K.

Updated Sunday, 8 November 2026 · ranked from the 24 Shorts YouTube returned for this query.

Ranked by views per day since publish, not by total views — a three-year-old video with a million views has taught nobody anything about this month. Source: YouTube's most-popular chart with region code IN, category ID 25 (News & politics), up to 200 entries, refreshed once a day. Titles are screened for English, so this is the English-titled slice of the chart, not all of it.

Questions about this chart

Where does this list come from?

YouTube's own most-popular chart, requested with the region code IN and YouTube's own News & politics category (ID 25). We read up to 200 entries of it, keep the Shorts (three minutes or under), drop anything under a thousand views, allow no channel more than twice, and sort what is left by views per day since publish rather than by total views.

Are these videos made in India?

Not necessarily. A regional chart reflects what is popular with viewers in that country, and YouTube does not tell us where a channel is based. Some of these will come from creators elsewhere, and we do not claim otherwise.

Why are all the titles in English?

Because this page is written for English-speaking creators. Titles on the chart for India are screened for English — by script, and by naming another language — and the rest are dropped, with no extra calls to YouTube. What you see is the English-titled slice of the chart, not the whole of it.

What counts as News & politics?

Whatever the uploader filed under YouTube's News & politics category. We do not re-sort videos ourselves, so a video filed in the wrong category turns up on the wrong chart.

Why is this chart sometimes empty?

YouTube does not keep a most-popular chart for every category in every country, and a chart it does keep can have no Shorts on it above a thousand views. When that happens the page says so and shows nothing, rather than borrowing videos from another chart.

How often does it update?

Once a day. The date of the last refresh and the number of Shorts ranked are shown above the list, and if today's refresh has not run yet the page says so and shows the previous one.

Is this TikTok data too?

No. YouTube Shorts only. We have no TikTok or Instagram corpus and any page implying otherwise would be lying about where the numbers came from.

What does 'Make my version' do?

It carries that video's title into our generator as an angle and writes a new script in your own wording — on a plan from $7 a month. Nothing is copied from the original video.
