In the highly political environment of West Bengal, 'ga bachiye chola' is often a survival tactic for those who do not want to be affiliated with any political party. In corporate Dhaka, this phrase is frequently used to describe middle-management behavior where avoiding 'show-cause' notices is a priority. Many satirical writers like Parshuram or Shibram Chakraborty have used this idiom to mock the 'cowardly' nature of the urban middle class. The 'ideal' son-in-law is often expected to 'ga bachiye chola' in family politics to maintain a good relationship with all in-laws.
