Shashi Tharoor challenges Modi
Rahul Gandhi has made a decision to contest from Kerala’s Wayanad
constituency. Shashi Tharoor said on Sunday and asked whether Prime Minister
Narendra Modi would have the courage to fight from a seat in Kerala or Tamil
Nadu.
If Congress wants to prove to the people that Rahul's leadership is
better than Modi's, Rahul must stand against Modi in both the places of
Varanasi and Vadodara and win the election.
Instead of all this Rahul is running away to Waynadu fearing his rival
Smriti Irani. Modi is far ahead of Rahul in all aspects. Modi's win is mainly
because Congress is in shambles.
For Shashi Tharoor it is easy to sing praise of Congress President or be
critical of the policies of NDA but difficult to implement promises. Therefore,
Congress should come up with a comprehensive
document that must deal with (a) problems like lack of job, (b) unemployment,
(c) farm crisis and farmers’ suicides, inflation, and in particular
difficulties of senior citizens who are not govt. pensioners, (d) existing
deficiencies in GST etc. It is necessary that the document gives details as to
how the Congress party would deal with all these issues. This document can be
released after the Karnataka Assembly election in which the Congress hopes to
do well, but well before next year’s Lok Sabha election so that citizen-voters
can respond.
There is no courage involved in contesting from the South, either Tamil
Nadu or Kerala. Only opportunism and a desire to survive prompted RG to contest
from Waynad. RG will not dare to contest from Tamil Nadu either. So he might
feel that they owe him a victory which the people of UP might not provide.
