Bengaluru: Rahul Gandhi, the former AICC president continues to be tutored and exposed for his immaturity and flippancy. 

After NCP president Sharad Pawar schooled Rahul Gandhi and reminded him of the 1962 blunder which the Congress had committed, it’s now the turn of Milind Deora, another Congress leader to lament such an attitude.

He said in his tweet, “It’s highly unfortunate that the national discourse surrounding the surge in Chinese transgressions has deteriorated into political mud-slinging. When we should be united in condemning China’s actions & seeking solutions, we are exposing our divisions.”

 

Interestingly, he had also put out a tweet in relation to the Emergency. He had said, “The Emergency reminds us that democracies, when tested, fight back resiliently. This also applies to political parties. Democratic organisations adapt better & overcome challenges. Democracy is a constant work in progress, requiring commitment, sacrifice & honest introspection.”

 

It is further interesting to note that Deora had opposed Rahul Gandhi in relation to fuel prices in April, educating him about the nitty-gritty of the trade. 

 

Such sane voices coming from the same party is a greater assertion that Rahul Gandhi must introspect on the charges he is making. 

Gandhi has not made any meaning of his statement as EAM S Jaishankar tutored him on the issue of soldiers not carrying guns. 

Then, he tried to play with words ‘surrender’ and ‘surender’, only ending up being scoffed at his flippancy. 

In fact, other Congress leaders have also exhibited a less serious attitude at a time when the nation stands as one in the wake of Galwan clashes that resulted in the martyrdom of 20 Indian soldiers. 

Even in the all-party meet chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Sonia Gandhi chose to be different by posing several questions to the Prime Minister, while others threw their weight behind him.
