Rahul Gandhi called out by BJP leader Dharmendra Pradhan

Rahul Gandhi, the Congress MP, was called out by Union Minister and BJP leader Dharmendra Pradhan in a recent comment, which downplayed his role in Indian politics and public opinion. In response to Gandhi’s critique of the BJP’s election manifesto—which focused on the manifesto’s lack of concrete pledges for unemployment and inflation—Pradhan made his remarks.

Speaking to ANI, Pradhan referred to Gandhi as “Yuvraj” and said that the Congress party and he are not relevant in today’s political environment. He highlighted the trust that the Modi administration had garnered in the last ten years, particularly among the underprivileged population.

In his words, “Congress party and its leader, ‘Yuvraj’ Rahul Gandhi himself, are nowhere in Indian politics or in people’s mind. In these 10 years of the Modi government, we have won the trust of the poor,”

In comparison to the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, the Union Minister predicted that the Congress party’s electoral performance will continue to deteriorate. He blamed the Congress’s inevitable downfall on what he described as its historical failures while in power and its subsequent relegation to the opposition.

Odisha’s Dharmendra Pradhan, who is scheduled to run from the Sambalpur seat, noted that the BJP has a history of winning 303 seats in general elections while the Congress has only managed to win 52 seats.

Rahul Gandhi had earlier expressed confidence that the youth would back the Congress and lead a “employment revolution” in the nation, criticizing the BJP’s agenda for failing to address important concerns like unemployment and inflation.
