First Tharoor, now Chidambaram: Senior leaders put Congress on backfoot
Friday, 16 May 2025 () The Congress party faces renewed criticism from the BJP after P. Chidambaram's pessimistic assessment of the INDIA bloc's future. His remarks provided ammunition for the BJP to attack the Congress and the opposition coalition. The BJP labeled the INDIA bloc as an opportunistic alliance and questioned Congress's leadership.
As the Congress invoked Indira Gandhi's 1971 Bangladesh war leadership to criticize the Modi government’s ceasefire deal with Pakistan, senior leader Shashi Tharoor urged a clear-eyed view of history. Calling the 2025 scenario "entirely different," Tharoor said India needs peace, not endless escalation. He emphasized the importance of preventing protracted conflict, arguing that while retaliation against terrorism is necessary, risking national stability without clear goals is not. The comments mark a sharp political and strategic contrast to current government narratives amid rising border tensions.
