Modi-Shah’s Nehru Obsession: Congress Calls it a Desperate Diversion
Congress leader Jairam Ramesh on Wednesday launched a scathing attack against Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah, accusing them of an unhealthy fixation on Jawaharlal Nehru. Ramesh argued this relentless focus serves as a smokescreen, obscuring the government’s inability to address pressing policy challenges and its failures on various fronts.
He characterized the BJP’s repeated references to Nehru as a deliberate tactic to deflect attention from the government’s shortcomings. The Congress contends this strategy reveals a lack of substantive responses to crucial national issues.
Ramesh’s statement comes amidst growing criticism of the government’s handling of the economy and rising inflation. The Congress is clearly attempting to leverage this discontent, framing the BJP’s actions as a political manoeuvre.
The ongoing political sparring highlights the deep ideological divide between the ruling BJP and the opposition Congress. This latest salvo underscores the intensifying battle for public opinion ahead of crucial state elections. The public’s perception of this “Nehru obsession” will likely play a significant role in shaping the political landscape in the coming months.
