Row Over Congress MP's 'Nepo' Remark: Was Tewari's Post A Loaded Gun?
Are leaders within the Congress speaking out against dynasts in their own party? Is this a revolt from within against the 'ultimate nepo kid' of Indian politics? That was the BJP's interpretation today after Congress MP Manish Tewari wrote about how youths worldwide have lost patience with entitlement, nepotism, and dynasts. Tewari cited global uprisings-from Sri Lanka to Bangladesh, Nepal to the Philippines-as evidence. The BJP seized this as a political opportunity, alleging Tewari's remarks were a veiled reference to Rahul Gandhi, whom they called the 'ultimate nepo kid' due to Congress veterans' alleged frustration with his regressive politics. This raises pressing questions: Are Congress leaders genuinely hinting at nepotism and dynasty issues within their party, or is BJP playing political mischief? And who truly is Indian politics' nepo kid?
