Rahul-Kejriwal saga: What the Lutyens Media didn’t tell you
Op IndiaI bet most of you wouldn’t know it. Buried deep down in their long story was one line:“AAP did a volte-face Thursday declaring it would support the Congress if Rahul Gandhi requested Arvind Kejriwal.” Indian Express never tells it readers that Rahul Gandhi never called!!! “If Nitish could ask for support for his candidate, why not Rahul,” Singh said “When he can hug PM Modi, why can’t he ask Arvind Kejriwal to support his party’s candidate?” None of these damaging words, I can assure, you would find in these mentioned three English dailies. The news betrays a horde of staggering facts: Opposition unity is going nowhere and Congress could be its biggest stumbling block; Rahul Gandhi is arrogant; BJP could’ve a cake-walk, come 2019 General Elections. I mean Modi’s arrogance to allies is causing splits such as with TDP; but Rahul Gandhi’s nonchalance to Arvind Kejriwal is no arrogance and still good news for “mahagathbandhan”.
