New Delhi :
The Supreme Court has given immediate relief to Rahul Gandhi in the Modi surname case. His parliament membership has also been restored. He also reached the Parliament. The Delhi Service Ordinance is also being debated in the Rajya Sabha. Now the matter has focused on the opposition alliance and the role of Congress in it. It is being speculated that the way the Congress has shown “big heart” till now, it may now increase its stake further. It is possible that he may also present a claim for the post of Prime Minister and convenor of the coalition named India. However, the biggest question is whether Rahul Gandhi will get back his old house in Tughlaq Lane, or a new house will be allotted to him.
Rahul wants “old house” after MP
With Rahul Gandhi coming back to Parliament, the biggest change will be seen in Congress’s own politics, its floor management and its parliamentary prowess. The exercise of opposition unity which was visible now, the way the floor management was being done in the absence of Rahul Gandhi, at the same time the Congress was attacking the BJP government, will decrease now. The reason for this is that Congress will now project Rahul, those who are ambitious in the opposition will be pushed into the background. Opposition unity is not going to end yet, but with an adjustment, the way the opposition was aggressive, it will decrease. There is one more thing that BJP and especially its current leadership always attacks Rahul, so BJP leadership will definitely think that Rahul will do something or the other, his advisors will definitely do something wrong and BJP will get an issue in the election year.
Now, of course there is the issue of Rahul Gandhi’s residence, which was taken away from him. Housing Committee of the Parliament decides which house will be allotted to whom? So, it is for them to decide. However, the effort of Congress will remain the same that Rahul gets the same house in Tughlaq Lane, in which he used to live. Now the question of nose is for Congress and Rahul Gandhi, but the housing committee will give the house only after taking care. It is certain that Rahul would like to own the same bungalow, but the final decision will be taken by the Parliamentary Housing Committee.
BJP is also happy with Rahul’s return
However, the BJP is also skeptical. She is also afraid of Rahul Gandhi, but she also does politics on his pretext, becomes aggressive as well, that means she is also the “masala” of BJP. Secondly, Congress will project Rahul. Anyway, it is the record of the Congress that whenever it remained in the opposition, it only projected the Gandhi-Nehru family. Narasimha Rao was an exception to this, though even in that period the projection remained on the family. When Tiwari Congress was formed, it was an attempt to establish Sonia Gandhi. When Sonia Gandhi suddenly became the president in 1998, this was the strategy behind her. This has been the destiny of the Congress since 1971. She cannot see beyond “family”. If you look at the Congress, it is very enthusiastic now. A section of the media is also promoting it in the same way. By the way, Congress must be in enthusiasm. However, the success of a leader depends on how mature he is, how mature his advisors are.
Only four days are left for the Parliament session. Friday is the day for Private Members’ Bills. So, in total it is a matter of three and a half days. There is bound to be an uproar over that. Yes, the ordinance regarding Delhi is being discussed and its passing is just a formality, because the numbers are in favor of the ruling party. The three big parties in the Rajya Sabha (BJD, BRS, YSR Congress) had already announced their support to the government leaving neutrality, so no matter how much the opposition creates ruckus, the bill will be passed. Even before this, the government has already got the bills passed amidst a lot of uproar.
There will be a fight on the combination in the opposition
There will be a fight on the combination in the opposition In the opposition alliance formed in the name of India, the issue of Rahul Gandhi’s combination may also arise. One thing we should remember is that Nitish Kumar may be running the race, but Mamata Banerjee was also behind the combination. Mamta Banerjee had also advised Nitish Kumar to hold the first meeting of the alliance in Patna so that Delhi does not become the pivot of this combination. It should also be remembered that both Mamta and Nitish Kumar were in the government in the Vajpayee government. Nitish’s party was Samta Party at that time. So, there was a constant war of words between Samta and Mamta, especially regarding the Ministry of Railways. Now imagine how much trouble Mamata has with the Congress that she is ready to give space even to Nitish Kumar. Mamta also believes that she is the future PM candidate. The past of 1996 is in front of everyone, when Deve Gowda became the winner of the horse race and also the PM. The Janata Dal, which got less than 100 seats, got the command of the country then.
This is the reason that if Congress is projected, then their hopes get tarnished. It is not so easy to become the convenor of Rahul Gandhi. Rahul does not even see the quality of combination. Overall, Lalu Prasad seems to be his only supporter, the rest no one takes his name openly. Rahul doesn’t seem to have that much patience and tendency to take everyone along. From this point of view, Sharad Pawar and Nitish Kumar are the only two solid leaders in the opposition, worth it. Even though both of them have refused, but these people ensure that work, which they have refused. His politics is the witness of this. In the meeting that took place in Patna, no leader was elected like that, but if you see in the Bengaluru meeting, the Congress kept a complete hold. Now Sharad Pawar would like to keep full hold in the meeting of Maharashtra. He would like to keep the reins in his own hands. So at the moment, three leaders Sharad Pawar, Nitish Kumar and Mamta Banerjee are the three leaders who want to keep the reins in their hands, so the path is not easy for Rahul at the moment.
