Rahul Gandhi’s reply to Elon Musk’s tweet today exposes two things that define Rahul Gandhi’s and the Congress ecosystem’s politics. Nothing exposes them better than this one tweet.
First, when discussions were going on last year about Starlink’s possible entry into India, the Congress party opposed it, alleging that this was being done to support businessmen close to Prime Minister Modi. They even brought in the national security angle to oppose Starlink’s entry.
And now, the same Rahul Gandhi has made a complete U-turn and is pushing for Starlink’s entry into India. He has not only reversed his party’s stand from a few months ago, but has also conveniently forgotten the national security arguments his own party had raised then.
This shows that Rahul Gandhi’s opposition is simply for the sake of opposition. When they thought the Modi government was supporting Starlink, they opposed it. Now, when they think the government is opposing it, they are supporting Starlink.
They can sway whichever way they want, as long as it is to oppose Modi. Principles, consistency and even national security can be conveniently forgotten.
Second, look at what has happened today and how history has parallels to this.
Rahul Gandhi is supporting a foreign businessman because he believes Indian businessmen are close to the Prime Minister. He seems willing to welcome a foreign businessman to challenge Indian businesses simply because he believes those businesses support Modi.
This reminds us of Jaichand. There are many such examples in Indian history where our own people sided with foreign interests to further their individual political ambitions. Every time, such choices cost the nation dearly. These divisions and betrayals contributed to centuries of foreign domination and subjugation.
Rahul Gandhi seems determined to replay the same textbook.
But this time, the consequences could extend beyond political hegemony to technological and economic dependence as well.
And for what? Just to oppose Modi?
Will you oppose India just to oppose Modi, Mr. Rahul Gandhi?
It is unfortunate that we have a Leader of Opposition like you, Mr. Rahul Gandhi.
🚨No way someone has made an entire game exposing CJP. We all need to support this initiative
This game deserves to trend all over India

घर में मतभेद हैं तो बैठकर बात करेंगे,
मनमुटाव है तो मिलकर दूर करेंगे।
क्योंकि हमारा घर है, हमारे अपने हैं।
लेकिन याद रखिए...
घर के अंदर की नाराज़गी, बाहर वालों को घर तोड़ने का लाइसेंस नहीं देती।
मतभेद हमारे हो सकते हैं, वह हम बाद में देख लेंगे लेकिन इस समय देश के प्रधानमंत्री जी को और गृह मंत्री जी को हमारी बहुत जरूरत है हमारे समर्थन की बहुत जरूरत है आपसी मतभेद को भूलकर मोदी जी का साथ दे।
बाहरी ताक़तों से सिर्फ़ इतना कहना है
अपनी हद याद रखिए..देश हमारा है हम अपने देश की सुरक्षा के लिए प्रतिबद्ध हैं..🇮🇳 🙏
Is andolan ka aakhir fayda kya hai?
Na samadhan, na koi thos nateeja—sirf nare, barricading aur social media par hungama.
Janta pooch rahi hai: mudda hey nahi, aur hasil kya hua?
