Is there someone behind Boycott Bollywood Gang or its the Public?! - Page 19

Yes she brought one woman dominance in party and was in favour of strong center and weak states. She did destroy opposition parties and destabilise state govts, misused her powers, did not let regional leaders grow which is why INC still lacks credible regional leaders.

She had bazillion flaws, brought laws, amendments at whim, violated human rights, muzzled democracy, played dangerous communal politics. But as a leader she was very much articulate, mingled with masses, would get off car and rush into the mobs, crowds, dress like locals, advertised herself and her family well as an ideal family. She was educated at Oxford and is not uneducated.

To be honest, her DIL was also a more astute politician and it is no mean feat to rebuild party and rule for 10 years using a world class economist as a PM to also wash sins of 1984. Sonia was also more brainy compared to her silly kids, who seem clueless and lack wit.

I can see sense of Gandhis when they let go of Captain and favoured Sidhu who is a turncoat anyway and happily destroyed own party in Punjab making way for AAP. The siblings have ZERO political acumen compared to their great grandfather, granny and parents.

We saw how your IT cell treated farmers during protests and called them terrorists or too illiterate to understand farm bills.

LMAO! So much for now saying illiterate farmer can be intelligent.

They sure are and brought this govt to knees. 🤣

What was wrong in farm law? Could you explain?

Of course Indira was not uneducated. She went to the best institutions

Shantiniketan, Badminton School, Oxford but was a drop out everywhere, either cz of her incompetence or situation beyond her control, depending on whom you ask

Her sons on the other hand, were not academically gifted to put it mildly. They were not interested in studies at all...

Sanjay did not even attend University, Rajiv did attend Cambridge but did not finish it

I don't judge them for it but when ordinary people who are not educated cz of lack of money or opportunities are looked down upon here, then what about these two?

Priyanka's husband is a not a graduate either

And Rahul could not even keep his Amethi seat which was his Uncle and Dad's constituency too

He knew it beforehand and chose to contest in Wayanad, Kerala too, wonder what made him chose that place

INC has always been seen as the party of holier-than-thou elites. I am not sure who ever saw INC as the party for masses. Modi largely capitalized on that with the "Shehzada vs Chaiwala" discourse in 2014.

In 2004 and 2009 elections

In 2004 elections BJP's slogan was "India Shining" referring to the economic growth and Congress Party chose "Aam Admi" to counter it

And we know who won

"In the 2004 Lok Sabha elections: “Congress Ka Haath…Aam Aadmi Ke Saath (Congress’ hand is with the common man)” and “Aam Aadmi Ko Kya Mila (What did the common man get), to counter the BJP’s ‘India Shining’ campaign. The slogans helped Congress to a win that year.

year.

For the 2009 polls, the slogan: “Aam Aadmi Ke Badhte Kadam…Har Kadam Par Bharat Buland (Every step of the common man makes India stronger), helped it retain power for a second term."

But they had to abondon it and shift focus on the middle class, since the 2014 elections
