Rahul Gandhi Ignited Enthusiasm Among Youth: Shashi Tharoor After PM Modi's ‘Failed Product’ Remark

Modi accused Congress of undermining India’s reputation and said the party has lost independent thought, while comparing its failed leadership attempts to rocket launches.

  • On Thursday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi used the NDTV World Summit to criticize the Congress, accusing the party of damaging India's global reputation to protect the Nehru-Gandhi family.
  • Modi ridiculed the party as a "failed product," comparing Congress leadership attempts to rocket launches from Sriharikota and alleging "Dimagi Naxals" have captured its independent judgment.
  • The Prime Minister claimed Congress leaders travel abroad to defame India and plead for foreign intervention, describing the party as a "parasite" obstructing genuine democratic reform.
  • Congress leader Shashi Tharoor dismissed the Prime Minister's claims, citing his role as chairman of the Parliamentary Standing Committee on External Affairs as evidence of party democracy.
  • Tharoor argued that the BJP is attempting to undermine Rahul Gandhi because the party is worried about his growing popularity and fresh enthusiasm among young voters.
