How can India mitigate risks of losing traditional markets to other basmati-producing countries, and what role does farmer consultation play in these export policies? Share your opinion...
The Congress has often accused the BJP of dominating the political narrative through aggressive messaging and constant public engagement. Yet, at a time when issues like the alleged Ram Temple donation controversy, paper leak protests, Punjab's internal crisis and other opposition campaigns were dominating national politics, Rahul Gandhi's absence has drawn as much attention as the issues themselves. In politics, where perception often shapes reality, has Rahul Gandhi's absence allowed both the BJP and regional parties to occupy the political space that the Congress should have been leading ?
कांग्रेस अक्सर भाजपा पर आक्रामक संदेशों और लगातार जनसंपर्क के जरिए राजनीतिक विमर्श पर कब्ज़ा करने का आरोप लगाती रही है। लेकिन ऐसे समय में, जब कथित राम मंदिर दान विवाद, पेपर लीक आंदोलन, पंजाब में कांग्रेस का आंतरिक संकट और विपक्ष के कई बड़े मुद्दे राष्ट्रीय राजनीति के केंद्र में थे, राहुल गांधी की अनुपस्थिति भी उतनी ही चर्चा का विषय बन गई जितने ये मुद्दे। राजनीति में, जहाँ धारणा अक्सर वास्तविकता को प्रभावित करती है, क्या राहुल गांधी की अनुपस्थिति ने भाजपा और क्षेत्रीय दलों को वह राजनीतिक स्थान दे दिया है, जिसकी अगुवाई कांग्रेस को करनी चाहिए थी ?
The BJP has long projected the Ram Temple as a symbol of faith, integrity and national pride. Now, allegations over donation irregularities have given the Opposition an opportunity to question that narrative, with Arvind Kejriwal launching a nationwide signature campaign. As Punjab heads towards the 2027 Assembly elections, will this controversy weaken the BJP's moral pitch in states where it is trying to expand its footprint, or will voters see it as yet another politically amplified issue ?
