A crucial INDIA bloc meeting in Delhi has been overshadowed by sharp criticism of the Congress from within the opposition alliance itself. CPI leader D Raja questioned the Congress party's political direction and leadership, while DMK and AAP stayed away from the meeting amid growing tensions with the grand old party. Posters highlighting past criticism of Rahul Gandhi and Congress by opposition leaders have also surfaced in the national capital, underscoring the strains within the alliance. As leaders gather to discuss issues ranging from fuel price hikes to recent electoral setbacks, questions remain over the bloc's unity, leadership and future strategy against the BJP ahead of key political battles.
