We are here once again with the fourth episode of Amar Ujala’s special show ‘Khabaron Ke Khiladi’. This funny election discussion can be seen on Amar Ujala’s YouTube channel at 9 pm on Saturday and 9 am on Sunday.
Uproar over Rahul Gandhi’s statement on foreign soil is still going on and the Parliament of the country is stalled on this issue. The opposition is focusing only on the Adani case instead of issues like inflation, unemployment. At the same time, the government is adamant on Rahul Gandhi’s apology. … So let’s know what are its political implications and what is the opinion of the analysts on this whole issue. Present with us for discussion today are Vinod Agnihotri, Sumit Awasthi, Harshvardhan Tripathi, Awadhesh Kumar and Renu Mittal. Read some parts of the discussion….
The ruling party is demanding an apology for the statement made by Rahul Gandhi after going abroad, but it is important that what the public has to think about it? Do the people of the country want to hear an apology from Rahul Gandhi or is it being unnecessarily made an issue? There is a similarity in the statements of George Soros and Rahul Gandhi, in such a situation, the question arises whether foreign forces are involved in this? If SEBI is probing the Adani case, is the opposition’s demand for a JPC correct? Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s image is his strength, so the opposition is trying to target his image with the Adani case. The house should run and the ruling opposition should run the parliament by dialogue. This is the responsibility of both the parties.
Renu Mittal
The government does not want to speak much on the Adani case and is avoiding it. This is the reason why the Congress is constantly trying to corner the government on this issue. The Prime Minister had also said such things about the country while going abroad, so why is there so much hue and cry about Rahul Gandhi’s statement now? If someone wants to answer in the Parliament then why are they not being allowed to answer! The entire opposition is demanding answers, so the Prime Minister should speak on this. The demand to form a committee should be accepted. Whatever Rahul Gandhi said on Adani, it was removed from the proceedings of the Parliament! The government wants that there should be no debate on the Adani case, so Rahul Gandhi’s statement is being made an issue. The government did not do any investigation on the Adani case, questions are being raised on the government regarding this. The government wants to confuse by raising the issue of George Soros. Soros is not so important that the government should take him so seriously.
Awadhesh Kumar
If the undeclared biggest leader of the country’s second largest party insults the country by going abroad, then it is shameful. If you say that democracy is dying out of our country, blaming the judiciary, it cannot be called correct. Merely apologizing will not end Rahul Gandhi’s crime. The people of the country will answer this. On the allegations of the government not allowing the Parliament to function, he said that from 2012 to 2014, even the members of the Congress did not allow the Parliament to function, while the Congress was in power. At that time, the Parliament was disrupted for one-and-a-half years on the issues of Telangana and the Women’s Bill.
There is a feeling in the minds of the people that if the industrialist of our country is competing with the industrialists of China and the world, then it has increased the prestige of the country. It is well known what has happened to all the JPCs formed in the Parliament in our country. The JPC has never reached a conclusion on any issue. It has only become a political issue. Directionless, credibilityless opposition is creating issues without any reason. Soros was also termed as an economic terrorist by former Malaysian President Mahathir Mohamad.
Vinod Agnihotri
‘Government can be surrounded by discussion on Adani case. In such a situation, the case of Rahul Gandhi is being raised. I think the government is stuck on this because if Rahul Gandhi speaks, he can again corner the government on the Adani issue. If the Speaker removes the part spoken on the Adani issue from his speech, then Rahul Gandhi’s point will again be proved right. Even if Rahul Gandhi is suspended from the Parliament, Rahul Gandhi’s statement of censorship will get support. In such a situation, this matter has become a bit complicated for the government. At the same time, it is difficult for the opposition also because if Rahul Gandhi is allowed to speak, how will the opposition proceed on this matter? It is not clear. The opposition is raising the issue of inflation, unemployment, but elections are not won on these issues. Elections are decided on emotional issues.
No one has problem with Adani becoming number two, but wrongdoings should be probed. Wrong methods are being hidden under the guise of nationalism. If drugs are caught at Mundra port, they will be questioned, isn’t it, they are developing infrastructure, so they will not be spared for this! During the time of Congress, such allegations were also leveled against Ambani. Had the Hindenburg report not come, no one would have questioned Adani.
Harshvardhan Tripathi
‘Whoever is the MP, he must get a chance to speak, there is no doubt about it. PM Modi had said that those born in the country before 2014 were ashamed, this statement of the Prime Minister is being targeted by the opposition, but we have to understand that in June 2012, famous industrialist Azim Premji had said that the country is leaderless. It is done. If this continues, we will have to face the consequences for years. People all over the world were seeing India in this way. Prime Minister Modi was talking in that context. If Rahul Gandhi has copied Prime Minister Modi, then he has copied very badly. George Soros has said something anti-national and if Rahul Gandhi says the same thing then how can it be called correct. The opposition is not able to strategically surround the Prime Minister and that is why it is repeatedly raising the Adani issue.
‘Rahul Gandhi’s Bharat Jodo Yatra was not on issues like inflation, unemployment. Only Hindu-Muslim was made an issue in his visit. Rahul Gandhi has not raised any serious issue even in the Parliament. They don’t have any thoughts of their own. Rahul Gandhi and the entire Congress are desperate and frustrated and that is the reason they want to create anarchy in the country. Mamta Banerjee, Ashok Gehlot are not raising voice in front of Adani group because projects of Adani group are going on in these states. Bhupesh Baghel Adani Group is being given licenses on the license of the mine. Adani has established ‘Brand India’ in the world. Rahul Gandhi and his party do not know the pulse of the people at all. The Bharatiya Janata Party is facing allegations of misuse of institutions, but are all the allegations being leveled clean? The country has faith that Modi ji is honest. The public has become sensible now.
