Quocunque, I agree with your parsing.

Thanks for the extra clue! Reading it from the bottom definitely changes the perspective. I'll have another look with the "S" abbreviation and the (2,3) phrase for "caught" in mind. Appreciate the nudge!

Any clues for parsing 13d plse. Think I have it but can't figure it!

Did enjoy seeking themed clues though.

Thanks

malone@17 has a good hint for 13d.

Hi judy
Find a word that means "hard to accept", then change a B for a W (swap chess players) to mean a left field word for "wrong to assume". (Assume isn't the most obvious meaning)

"I think your parsing makes good sense. In that reading, the definition would be \"immediately after that\", with the wordplay being a charade of article + about + Indian state + occurring. Nice spot!"
