Congress is more powerful than the BJP.

The proof?

The BJP jailed AAP’s top leadership and CM for months, yet AAP still refused to stoop to thu-thu-main-main and gali-galauj politics.

Yet Congress effortlessly dragged AAP down into that exact same mud. That’s how a 140-plus-year-old party keeps India's political discourse backward.

Someone must be saying, “I’m so exhausted dealing with these photo-mongering chaps. Someone please book me a spa in Bangkok ASAP. I desperately need a break from all this public service!” 😂

Look at what has hit the front page of The Hindu for the last two days straight: Sonia Gandhi’s love story, plastered across the headlines as if it dictates the destiny of this nation.

Why? Why is this front-page news for a country of 1.4 billion people facing real, future-defining challenges?

Something major is shifting beneath the surface.

This isn’t a holistic change—it’s an immoral power-shift agreement between two outdated patriarchs. Backroom deals are being settled between the 100-plus-year-old religious-regressive-patriarchal force of the BJP-RSS and the 140-plus-year-old dynastic, corrupt political patriarchy of the Congress.

To facilitate this, the 140-plus-year-old old-guard media machinery of The Hindu has stepped in as a patriarchal force itself. Instead of reporting actual ground realities and the problems people face, this age-old media house is manufacturing narratives—packaging Sonia Gandhi and the Congress as a ready-made solution for us to swallow, trying to control what the youth learn and think.

Tradition has its place, but toxic, century-old political patriarchies and their media enablers are holding this country hostage.

We are simply falling from one brand of outdated control straight into another.

India needs a complete political cleanup.

It’s high time for Gen Z to wake up, see through the smoke and mirrors, and reject this entire playbook.

You get nasty. We get nasty.

That was the treatment APP delivered when @RahulGandhi turned nasty in Punjab.

Age old political parties are muddying young and aspirational political parties.

India is EXACTLY like this where BJP ecosystem expects Opposition to behave with decorum while their unserious fools behave any way they damn want.
No more. You get nasty. We get nasty. @Cockroachisback

All good, @derekobrienmp?

Personal & below-the-belt attacks by Congress aren't a 'disgrace' to democracy?

Calling AAP the 'BJP's B-team' just to weaponize anti-BJP sentiment instead of fighting on real issues is immoral & unpardonable.

And in Delhi, Congress campaigned to transfer votes to BJP just to defeat AAP—will they pull the same trick in Punjab?

Is all of this really 'good' for you?
In Punjab, it’s Congress versus AAP, fighting it out fair and square. So it is natural the two will come hard at each other. In all this, the BJP have nothing to fake smile about. All Opposition parties fighting the BJP know our roles. All good
