Published by Parlour News

The Congress Working Committee (CWC) said on Wednesday it would double down on the party’s outreach to students by extending Leader of the Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi’s “Chhatron ki Goonj” programme to 800 towns, launch a grassroots agitation against alleged donation theft at the Ram Mandir and resolved not to sing the full version of the national song Vande Mataram at party events.

Congress MP Shashi Tharoor’s recent remarks on student issues and public outreach have sparked political reactions, with the BJP backing him, while Congress leaders stated that Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi, has risen above political calculations and remains focussed on systemic reforms. The controversy follows Tharoor’s comments that several of the issues highlighted by the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) during the nationwide student protests had already been raised by Congress leader Rahul Gandhi through his ‘Chhatron Ki Goonj (Voice of Students)’ campaign.  Disclaimer: We do not own any of the content, ideas, images, or text presented here.

What’s Rahul Gandhi planning amid buzz over absence from CJP-Wangchuk protest: ‘Are you rattled, Modi ji?’

Published by Parlour News

Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi has not visited activist Sonam Wangchuk who’s on hunger strike at the Cockroach Janta Party protest at Jantar Mantar for almost three weeks now, and that absence has become its own story — drawing jibes from Wangchuk himself, then a lengthy defence from a Congress leader, plus a shot at some perspective by CJP’s founder on X. Lok Sabha Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi speaks in a video message regarding the ‘Chhatron Ki Goonj’ series of rallies. (Video grab: X/@RahulGandhi) Amid the chatter, the Congress leader’s actual itinerary points elsewhere, towards the next event of his own campaign on the same issues, also demanding Union education minister Dharmendra Pradhan’s resignation over paper leaks and exam-related irregularities. A month after its launch in Rajasthan’s Kota, Rahul’s event series ‘Chhatron Ki Goonj’ will see its next show in Dehradun, Uttarakhand, on July 17, at a venue changed at short notice after the state administration withdrew its earlier clearance. Rahul also posted a video asking “Modi ji, are you rattled?”, over the venue-change …

The Congress also accused the BJP-led government of promoting the privatisation, centralisation and “Sanghification” of education over the past 12 years. “Over the past twelve years, the RSS-BJP government has only pursued the privatisation, centralisation, and Sanghification of education, and done too little to prepare India’s youth for the future.
