Dear SN , All your narrative on Ashok Chauvhan may be true, but one simple question is if he has a little bit of loyalty to the policies that made him choose the Congress then he would've quit and even form his own party or as independent candidate fight in assembly elections but ditching congress in the crucial time is pure evil, Shameless act people won't forgive him. If he's not happy with party let him retire and give way to youth but how come he can join a party that's having straight hopposite ideology, did he ever thought about the people who supported him for his ideology or party affiliation. Ruthless, Shameless, greedy fellows , backstabbers, cut throats ,let him go to he'll.
The incident of Ashok Chavan resigning and joining BJP was because of the white paper (Adarsh housing)produce during last week parliament session by BJP.
True Congress undermines Ashok Chauhan. Except PM post he got everything. His father also got everything except PM position. Stop this nonsense. only reason is ED heat and the timing was decided by BJP.
looks like a biased episode. I used to watch regularly but this guy disappointed me today. I will think twice before watching his episode again. Not sure why he is afraid of speaking a single word against BJP or ED today. very reason of all these things happening during rajya sabha election shows the dirty trick of BJP. He is deliberately ignoring that today.
The concern lies not in whether Balu Dhanorkar won or lost, but in the fact that the decision to grant a contest ticket was made by someone in Delhi, rather than the operational head actively engaged in the battle in Maharashtra.
The guy looked clearly lazy. The way he was announcing the members names. His laziness is evident that he said will resign in 2019 and did it after 5 years. Being a ex chief minister, he wanted funds from central party?? Does it make any sense?? The party seems its becoming proactive only now, removing leaders after defeating in madhya Pradesh is a good thing. Change is not easy. Lets see.
Nope He contests elections very seriously Nanded Municipality elections he was against the entire BJP cabinet MH Deglur Bypolls too he made the new candidate win with a large margin He was being pressured since June 2022 to leave on the eve of BJY entry in Nanded But he kept delaying Finally when Adarsh Scam featured in white paper He had to leave But Congress treatment of him isn't good to speak honestly RG has some sort of disaffection for him due to Adarsh But Leaders like Ashok Chavan make you win elections Not like Nana Patole
Ashok Chavan would have won the hearts of the people if he would have faced the consequences of the central agencies then stoop at the feet of the BJP. He has proven he is guilty. BJP has proven that they are thick skinned in the field of corruption.😂
The present situation is that congress is facing leadership crisis. There seems to be no ‘clean' and able leader. Anybody outside the family is not acceptable to the mother, who is the practical owner. She cannot trust anybody, other than her son, who proved to be ineffective. He has not displayed any leadership qualities. Now that he stepped down, gives a message to the cadres that congress is becoming irrelevant. The cadres do not find any scope in being in congress and they want to try their luck with BJP.
@@WorkWizdomSo you take them though they are corrupt. And you wash them as if they are saint. You do everything and blame congress is corrupt. You tag Chawan a corrupt politician and take him in your family. That means you all are professional looters. 😂😂😂
@@bibyputhukudiyil2746 - Every party has a border area. Some cows from this side go there and that side come here to graze,with permission. It is normal. In today's politics adhering to a strict principle or idea is not possible. I think BJP can afford the loss of some voters, principles , candidates for some time. The retreat of Congress has emboldened it. SMKrishna,the ex. Chief minister of Karnataka spent most of his life in Congress. Then he joined BJP after he was removed from central cabinet. He is not much useful to the party. Still he is retained and given respect because of seniority. It is also true that he is not given any high posts!That is how BJP has a system in it.
@@WorkWizdom congress didn't won Telangana and Karnataka out of nowhere Congress had stopped as a democratic party from the time of Indira Gandhi And there is no party in India today that is democratic All are family owned
Sir, according to you, if any sentiment gets hurt, will he change his ideology, after following Gandhi's ideology for 50 years, will he join the ideology of killing Gandhi just because no one asks him?
That's the exact problem which Congress and people like you are not understanding,Just look the example of jyoti Scindia Himanta Biswa Sharma Congress itself are not able to counter their own problems between the party , which other party is taking the advantage of that
Congress will revive itself in time. Some leaving are doing good for the party for younger generations to take over. Some will even request in the future to come back.
Happy he is gone. He once got CM seat and all the due respect and positions subsequently. In bad times, he never was seen as a leader who took in charge. Yet time to time blamed HC for not supporting him. This is why Delhi kept looking other options like Patole, Thorat and Rane. Frankly, S Shinde and P Chauvan can also quit and it won’t make any difference to INC. They do nothing more than being a pravakta on TV. Had the BJY not gone through Maharashtra, INC would be reduced to nothing. What INC needs is a leadership and energy like DK and Revanth in Maharashtra. Hein koi mai ka lal?
Ashok Chavan coming back to Congress could happen. If Sharad Pawar merges with Congress and begins to call the shots in Maarashtra Congress, then he being a shrewd man, may see the potential in Ashok Chavan and woo him back.
One of the most corrupted and useless CM in the history of Maharashtra. He was spoil the name of his great Father and most honest politician and Minister.
The good Congress leaders are leaving the party because Congress is not providing opportunities to meritorious ones to prosper in the party. Congress considers failures of Rahul in election a boon and promoting him whenever he fails. When Rahul with his lies on Rafale took the party to its ignominious defeat in 2019, the party considers the defeat a collective responsibility. When the party lose in Karnataka it is because of Siddaramiah or when it loses in Delhi it is because of Ajay Maken. Leaders are frustrated and humiliated. Congress has been losing clout among the public. Also falling out of favor with the public. The party itself have vanished in most of the states. Leaders who are with the party find there is no use staying in the party in all those states. Because of these reasons many of the leaders are leaving the party.
@@WorkWizdomSo he is not Corrupt but it’s Rahul’s fault? When u become corrupt, you will lose ur credibility. Thats the fault of Chavan and no one else.
@@sp3949 - Even congress party has accepted many corrupt leaders. Current Telangana CM is also corrupt so he is made the CM. If you point one finger towards others many would be pointing towards you
Good editorial. There is a problem with Indian politics. There is hardly anything called ideology. In the good old past when Congress was in the heydays of its power there were wholesale shifting of loyalties, just to have the cake of power. Congress is the party of Gandhi, Nehru, Sardar Patel and a whole lot of other leaders, for whom it was not just freedom from foreign rule but the transformation of the Indian mind immersed in most opprressiive feudal values. Ashok Chavan, a former Chief Minister of Maharashtra has joined BJP. If the reason for leaving the party was his sidelining in the party, then it is a sad commentary on the state of affairs of the Congress party. However Mr. Chavan and those Congress men who are in the que to leave Congress are expected to introspect over the need to have a healthy polity in the country , which can only happen if the Congress is syrengthened.
I always lament at the thought of not having a proper opposition other than Congress which is still deteriorating with some miniscule hope they keep generating here and then. 😢
Sadly, Congress Central leadership is selfishly guarding the power pin with the help of control on Congress funds , nominated leaders ,in and around, the capital and disregarding leaders with popular support. Rahul is no match to any Chief minister material! But paid journalists and corrupt leaders are in support, As a citizen we need an opposition with pan India appeal. The solution is Congress leadership must be led by elected leaders and not by nominated family comments.
@@D.ThirumalaikumarKumar Brother do not jump into conclusion. Think beyond bias and opinion. You are a citizen. Our country is not enslaved to a family or an icon. We need to build this country by rational opinions not by bias or paid reporting.
Chavan was told to arrange 150 cr for yatra , which in reality was not possible for him. Same with Kamalnath. The courtiers around Rahul are responsible for this things .
Most people who are fearful of arrests switch sides to escape.. looks like many cases are shelved. That's the bare facts as candidates switch has taken place..BJP somehow has dominant power and wealth. Almost undemocratic .In Goa it has happened. All people are really not fools and BJP acts with a tough hand. God show His righteousness 🙏🏻
What a bulls₹₹T editorial, the guy whose father was longest serving Chief Minister who had clout and wealth and the son also became CM and only father son duo to do so, still had to make money in Adarsh Scam at cost of defence land, then what quality he has to be in any party. Forget PCC President he is not fit for even Panchayat president. Ethical journalism also requires people to talk about ethics and honesty and probity in public life, what value it is to people if Chavan with his financial clout was able to poach people from Sena and tried to give tickets, what has been one single contribution of this guy which the people of the State have benefited from or has done for the good of the people. Farmer suicides, terrorist attcks were the norm in his period and he was busy making money in land deals. Does the editorial team have any obligation to inform people about facts and cases affecting them or is it the persona or floating audio clips which makes news. Please revisit your journalism as to for whom and what it is for?
Very very good analysis Mr. Nair. The present Congress party's woes started under the Presidentship of Sonia Gandhi who does not have political acumen leave alone understanding Indian politics. Their HR department has turned out to be worse under her leadership. Later she handed over the job to her son and daughter to some extent. Remember the brother/sister fiasco during Punjab assembly elections, when the CM Amar Singh was ignored and a joker and former cricketer Navjyot Siddhu was pushed ahead of him? Result - Punjab went out of Congress' fold. Same thing happened with Rajasthan and MP where young faces like Sachin Pilot, Jyotiradotya Schindhia were ignored and old faces Kamalnath, Ashok Gehlot were given prominence. Similarly the Congress Presidentship was given to Mallikarjun Kharge (instead of Shashi Tharoor) who thinks that asking few questions in the parliament is his only job. One is not sure whether he holds any clout in the party or not because even after more than a year of his selection for the top job, there is no tangible change visible in the party.
12:08 You used a strange word "lexadity". Any help on what the word means sir??? I am an ardent English vocabulary lover so would love to add that word but I am unable to find a mention anywhere in the internet or in dictionaries..please help😊
But Sujitji finally ticket went to Balu Dhanorkar whose name is Suresh Narayan Dhanorkar as promised by Ashok Chavan & wished by Congress Party workers & he defeated Sitting MP and BJP leader Hansraj Ahir
I am in disagreement with Nair Sir. For time being agreeing that Sh Ashok ji was not given due recognition in 2019, then why the resignation took place in 2024. Therefore, the logic is not really true. One should understand today Congress is having set back for whatever reasons. Setback is not permanent. One party loses one time and come back another time. What is pertinent is every one to bear the loss when occurs and stand with it rather than joining some other party which was not acceptable till now.
HW which "claims" to be "independent" media, is ignoring the rape of Dalit women in Sandeshkali, Bengal. If victims are Hindus and perperators peacefuls, HW looks the other way!!
First point, Nobody address the shortcomings, the biggest lack in Congress and also its similarities with BJP. Every other critique of Modi government when talks about present day governance it tries to replace Congress with them even though Congress have been doing things in similar lines of BJP but in a twisted fashion. Good you have spoken about it. I feel even Jyotiraditya leaving Congress was also the same reason. We can see what has happened now in MP. If running after power is a crime then should it not be applied to Gandhis. They want all the power. Why party does not get freedom from them. Second point why is that everyone who is unhappy with Congress to be precise Gandhis end up only with in BJP as if there is not other options available. Leave deora you said chavan joined bjp knowing fully that his political career is not going to go high, so how does it make difference. He could have joined Shiv sena, he could have joined NCP or he could have gone solo just the way others have done in the past. Why every politician's journey after Congress ends up in BJP these days.
Dont you know news He has gone with bLessings of 10 JP and he anyways wanted ticket for his daughter in LS. Even today Thorat said he will comeback at Vilasrao Deshmukh Statue Inauguration where all MHPCC, MPCC ,Sharad NCP was present. Interestingly Riteish Deshmukh and both his MLA Bros(ofc their father) were there. Thorat-Deshmukh was one camp vs Chavan-Vikhe(both gone for now) Earlier Shankarrao never got along with Sharad Pawar.
He could have joined NCP instead of the BJP, if he held integrity. He needs a safe place to show revenge to Congress. Those who lead people are called leaders He will be called as leader only when he stands under the flag of Congress.
Mr.Nair I really don't know what the he'll you want to tell.Tommrow if he comes or not today the damage is done for the Congress and INDIA alliance.I am happy you said that this is the fault of New Delhi ,If that is the case how the he'll we the Indians trust them to rule us.pls think it over.
All these big rulers and leaders knew the ground reality of the voters. Within last 10 years lot of poor people became rich and well settled. If all these new rich people give their vote to BJP , that party will readily get more than 400 seats. So. All these big rulers can become cabinet minister in next central government. Their future will be well settled for rest of their life because BJP government is full term stable guaranteed government. These are smart move for power.
If the same is extrapolated then one can only imagine what can happen to the country if INDI alliance were to win general elections.. all investors will go to 10 Janpath instead of South Block
Maharashtra is becoming a shitty pain in the neck of this. It is neither a flourishing state nor a wealthy state any longer. Bombay is the only attraction.
Sujit ji , really impressive analysis. I remember to have seen the episode of that telecon in 2019 in your editorial. Your leaving ad world and taking up full time journalism is a big gain to the later because people like you who speak their mind matter a Lot in times of Godi media. Best wishes 🙏🙏🙏
The congress has become a party of three orders, firstly emperor, second of nobles and lastly serfs , I think this doesn't work in this age of time , persons who have a done a field work for so long cannot be ignored from a immature dynasties person .
Sir you should call out names of the people from Delhi, that is Gandhi family. They could have won MP and Chattisgarh but all the descion where too much centralised.
Party first ...shall be the policy . Give tickets only to those loyal candidates . Migrant birds will join and run away . Ashok Chauhan must have initiated this approach.
