Inside the mind of Rahul Gandhi: How his utopian politics is acting as best insurance policy for ruling BJP

Firstpost  

Rahul Gandhi’s economic and political thinking seems deeply influenced by the Left-of-centre, often colouring his political judgement and putting party leaders at odds with him Congress leader Rahul Gandhi continues to be an unconventional politician and his address on the motion of thanks on 2 February 2022 in the Lok Sabha bears testimony of it. Rahul’s economic and political thinking seems deeply influenced by the Left-of-centre, often colouring his political judgement and putting party leaders at odds with him. About Rahul-led Congress, the CPM’s structural response observes, “The political influence and organisational strength of Congress has been declining and the ‘weakened’ party is unable to rally all the secular opposition parties.” Significantly, the draft resolution released by CPM general secretary Sitaram Yechury also stated that the Congress is facing a series of crises with defections of several leaders to the BJP in various states. The division among opposition ranks and Rahul’s utopian politics is acting as the best insurance policy for the ruling BJP-NDA.
