China Sees ‘Weak India’, Says Rahul Gandhi, Explains Why Congress Is Not Winning Elections


In a live conversation with Harvard Kennedy School Ambassador Nicholas Burns on Friday, Congress Leader Rahul Gandhi said that China is occupying Indian territory as we “speak” and this is because China sees a “weakened India, an India that it is internally divided. ” “I am absolutely convinced that a strong India with a clear strategy will have no problem dealing with China,” Rahul said.

Showing his iPhone, the leader of Congress said that China has won the battle of world production. “I don’t see how India and the United States are challenging this issue,” he said.

Speaking of Congressional reforms, the congressional leader said that not only Congress, but no other party in India is winning elections. Taking the name of the Samajwadi Party, Bahujan Samaj Party, Nationalist Congress Party, he said: “To fight the elections, I need institutional structures, I need a judicial system that protects me, I need a media that is reasonably free, I need parity, I need a whole set of structures that really allow me to operate a political party. I don’t have them. When you start behaving like the BJP is doing, a lot of people feel unhappy. The solution is to unite them. But we have to remember that now we are in a different paradigm “.

On the EVM controversy in the Assam elections, he said: “In Assam, the gentleman who runs our campaign has been sending videos of BJP candidates running around the voting machines in their cars. But there is nothing in the national media. “.

On the farmers’ protest, Rahul Gandhi said that the agricultural sector must be reformed, but it cannot be done without consulting stakeholders. “When we were in government, we got constant feedback. It amazes me how quickly we get feedback, be it from farmers, entrepreneurs … That feedback loop is closed now. So farmers have no other way,” he said, adding Punjab. The Chief Minister, Captain Amarinder Singh, wrote several letters calling on the Center not to pass the laws that have sparked the uproar.

Drawing a parallel between the passage of agricultural laws in Parliament and the imposition of the coronavirus lockdown in March 2020, Rahul said: “It is about how the country is run. All of this stems from the belief that centralized power does it. understands everything. The confinement was not discussed in the Cabinet. “
