There's drumbeat to find silver linings in 'moral, political, personal' defeat for Modi: Jairam Ramesh

The Hindu  

The Congress on June 8 claimed the mandate of the Lok Sabha polls has been a "moral, political and personal" defeat for Prime Minister Narendra Modi and said efforts were now being made to justify his "pathetic" electoral performance. The BJP has won 240 seats in the just-concluded Lok Sabha polls, falling short of the halfway mark in the 543-member House, but the National Democratic Alliance together won 293 seats. Congress general secretary Jairam Ramesh said the drumbeat to find silver linings in the mandate that has been a "moral, political and personal" defeat for Mr. Modi has started. "The drumbeaters will look for anything to justify Mr. Narendra Modi's pathetic electoral performance in 2024," Mr. Ramesh said.
