All too frequent disconnection of right brain (political leadership) with left brain (bureaucrats). This is why you need OSDs.

The BJP’s doors have effectively been closed to genuine feedback. The party is now almost entirely dependent on the personal success and political capital of Prime Minister Narendra Modi as both a leader and a politician. It also tends to treat any criticism of its mistakes or miscalculations as a conspiracy, which leaves virtually no room for honest dialogue or internal discussion. On a near-daily basis, one BJP leader or another can be seen mocking or belittling the party’s own supporters and their ideological commitments. Power has become heavily centralised, with little tolerance for dissent even from within the party. Core ideological positions are often diluted or set aside for short-term electoral gains, creating a growing disconnect between the leadership and the cadre. Internal democracy has weakened, and decisions are increasingly driven from the top rather than through broader consultation. As a result, long-standing supporters frequently feel sidelined or taken for granted.

Uncle probably thought that it was futile to argue with a fool like you. His son or any other Indian goes to New Jersey on a valid visa for a permitted period of time as per conditions laid, while your brother Bangladeshis come jumping the border fence.

I endorse & support this tweet. I’ve never told anyone this, but on occasion I attend parties north of India Gate & pass by the PMO at 1/2/3 am. I’ve seen UFOs flashing lights beaming rays onto the PMO at this time. I suspect Modi is a product of a Martian-Venusian joint-conspiracy
Mr Modi, stop lying to this nation. You became PM because of foreign help. You remain PM because of foreign help. Your financial system is fully controlled and supported by foreigners. Foreign social media fully backs you. I challenge you to an open debate about this. Any stage, any time. Come if you have the guts. You won't dare, because you are terrified of what I know about you. मोदी जी, इस देश से झूठ बोलना बंद कीजिए। आप विदेशी मदद से प्रधानमंत्री बने। और विदेशी मदद से ही प्रधानमंत्री बने हुए हैं। आपकी आर्थिक व्यवस्था पूरी तरह विदेशियों के नियंत्रण में और समर्थन से है। विदेशी सोशल मीडिया पूरी तरह आपके साथ खड़ा है। मैं आपको इस मुद्दे पर खुली बहस की चुनौती देता हूं। कोई भी मंच, किसी भी समय। हिम्मत है तो आइए। आप नहीं आएंगे, क्योंकि जो मैं आपके बारे में जानता हूं आप उससे डरते हैं।

Can one ask how a non-entity like Saurav Das manages to get all the "neutral" journalists together for a Diwali party at his place?

Check all the pan-India events Rahul Gandhi has done since 2014. On April 30, 2015, Rahul Gandhi began a 15 km 'kisan padyatra' in Amrawati district, Maharashtra's Vidarbha region. In May 2015, he held a 15-km 'padyatra' in Adilabad district, Telangana. On July 24, 2015, Rahul Gandhi undertook a 'padyatra' in Andhra Pradesh's drought-hit Anantapur district. In September 2016, Gandhi undertook a ‘kisan mahayatra’ in Uttar Pradesh. The Jan Vedna Sammelan / Nationwide Demonetisation Protests in January 2017. He did the ‘Kheti Bachao Yatra’ in Punjab on October 4, 2020. He organised a pan-India Bharat Jodo Yatra from September 7, 2022 – January 30, 2023. The Haath Se Haath Jodo Abhiyan (January – March 2023). The Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra began on January 14, 2024, in Thoubal, Manipur, and ended in Mumbai on March 20, 2024. He repeated the Samvidhan Bachao / Save the Constitution Campaigns in 2018 and 2024. Then came the Vote Adhikar Yatra, along with other leaders of the Mahagathbandhan, which culminated in Patna on September 1, 2025. Every time, the usual suspects say, "this time is different", "it feels unique, "this time it has young people and women". The fact is, they say the same thing every damn time. Their words don't even change now. This isn't analysis. This is a weird mix of hopium and copium. Look, I get that you want Rahul Gandhi to win. But say it openly, like I say I vote for the BJP and would prefer them to win. But even so, I set my BJP preference aside when I try to look at what might happen. I have stopped watching PM Modi's speeches by and large. I will make an exception here or there for word analysis in large models. I can predict what he will say and what Rahul Gandhi will say based on a solid speech model. But I am not foolish enough to think Mr Modi wins because of his speeches, or that Rahul keeps losing because of his speeches. Voters look at delivery, and they base their preference on that. Do not insult the Indian voter. The voter picks who he/she wants to pick and goes with them. Also, this isn't the first time the Indian opposition has filled Ramlila Maidan. Gosh, a giant chunk of Indians still vote for them. So that is the bare minimum any serious political outfit will achieve. FYI, Raj Thackeray also fills up Shivaji Park. That is a different matter; he cannot win elections. But again, Ramlila Maidan got full, and people started the usual copium and hopium. Please be better when you do any socio-political analysis. Look at things longitudinally. Look at past instances and then see what happened electorally after that. If your claim is that Rahul does these yatras to enthuse his own core base and cadre, then I am with you. Any good politician should do that. But everything else is bullshit, and it is my duty to point it out for folks who rely on such charlatans for analysis.

Now what can I say? If I say more, it will create another bawaal. And then, the whataboutery about why Railways itself isn't doing enough. Introspection is a difficult trait to imbibe. #IndianRailways #civicsense

Ordinary citizens (still very low)
Those talking over Ramlila Maidan crowd numbers, they should know that yesterday's headcount is not the story. Rather, it's the ordinary citizens ( although still very small percentage ) coming in for Opposition rally on their own + vibrancy and creativity in cadres unlike routine boring monologue/sloganeering.

The Congress should seriously consider getting @PreetiChoudhry on board as their official spokesperson. The way she is constantly batting for the party, even @SupriyaShrinate and @Pawankhera would be taking notes!!😂🤣
About yesterday - #RamlilaMaidanRally - Ramlila Maidan was packed to the rafters - Clear endorsement of Rahul Gandhi’s leadership of the INDIA alliance. - Unlike in the past, Congress was on the offensive,owning its attacks on the government. - Good rally management, Seva Dal deserving special mention. - Impressive cadre mobilisation across alliance partners. - Unseen iter-party cadre camaraderie - Launch of the Uttar Pradesh campaign. - A more united, cohesive and organised Opposition. Biggest achievement: not just mobilising, but energising and motivating the cadre for the battles ahead.
