  • Congress countered Prime Minister Modi's criticism, accusing him of defaming Nehru to distract from his own failures. Jairam Ramesh highlighted Modi's "obsession" with Nehru, arguing that the Prime Minister invokes Nehru to divert attention from current challenges and pre-2014 achievements.

The article from MSN discusses Prime Minister Narendra Modi's recent invocation of Jawaharlal Nehru, India's first Prime Minister, during a parliamentary session. Modi's mention of Nehru, particularly in the context of the Congress party's historical stance on reservations, was perceived by the Congress party as an attempt to distract from his government's current challenges and failures. Congress leader Jairam Ramesh criticized Modi for this tactic, suggesting that by focusing on historical figures like Nehru, Modi was trying to shift public attention away from pressing issues like unemployment, inflation, and social unrest. Ramesh highlighted that Modi's government has not adequately addressed these contemporary problems, instead choosing to engage in what he described as "whataboutery" by bringing up past leaders and events. This strategy, according to Ramesh, is an effort to deflect criticism and avoid accountability for the current administration's performance.
