In a riveting takedown, Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal has called out Rahul Gandhi for carrying forward a ‘compromise politics’ inherited from his forebears, from Nehru to Sonia Gandhi. Posting on X, Goyal criticized Gandhi’s international antics, like sending bare-chested figures to an overseas AI event, as a direct assault on India’s dignity.
The narrative began with Nehru’s foreign policy blunders. India spurned a permanent UN seat in the 1950s to spare China’s feelings. The 1954 Tibet accord sealed it as Chinese soil. Intelligence oversights preceded the 1962 rout, files sealed to this day.
Indira’s rule faced scrutiny for external funding meddling, Katchatheevu concession, and security trade-offs. Rajiv’s time brought Bofors infamy—kickbacks, cover-ups aplenty. Post-Bhopal, Anderson’s exit highlighted favoritism, with foreign intermediaries allegedly steering arms deals through personal bonds.
Under Sonia’s UPA shadow, power lurked beyond the PMO. National Herald saw party resources shift to family holdings. Foreign connections, encompassing China and Soros-linked groups, fueled security worries.
Goyal encapsulated: ‘Congress tries burying Rahul’s falsehoods and their history, but voters recall Nehru, Indira, Sonia’s national sellouts.’ This broadside amplifies BJP’s narrative of Congress’s dynastic dilutions of India’s strength, setting the stage for fierce debates.
