Opinion: Now Rahul Gandhi "OutSoros-es" His Attack On Narendra Modi
NDTV
On Thursday, August 31, while 63 leaders of 28 parties who constitute the organisation with the moniker "Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance" (INDIA) prepared for their two-day meet in India's financial capital, Mumbai, the principal face of its largest constituent, Rahul Gandhi, enacted a soliloquy that went against the very spirit of the word "alliance". It belittled the word "inclusive" (as the other 27 parties were not involved in their media outreach). It belied the words "developmental" and "national" (it has the potential of crashing India's stock market, causing common investors to lose money; and stymie foreign investment, damaging national interest).
By the end of the day, when the conclave participants savoured a gala dinner hosted by Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray, none of the other parties had endorsed the Congress agenda of baiting Narendra Modi on the allegation of promoting crony capitalism to benefit the Adani group.
Rahul Gandhi repeated his demand for a Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPC). During the past sessions of parliament, this demand found no takers among opposition parties. The Grand Old Man of the "INDIA" conglomerate, Sharad Pawar, even came on TV to distance himself from the suggestion while parliament was in session.
