News India Live, Digital Desk: In today’s politics, one cannot predict what will come out of someone’s mouth and when. Election activity is intense in Maharashtra and in such a situation, senior Congress leader Prithviraj Chavan has made a comment which has shocked not only the ruling party but also the general public on social media. He directly made a very ‘strange’ claim regarding Donald Trump, who is going to be the new President of America, and our country’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
What is the whole matter?
Actually, Prithviraj Chavan was talking about the relationship between PM Modi and Donald Trump during a political discussion. While talking sarcastically, he said that Donald Trump is so ‘dominating’ (influential) that “he will even kidnap our Prime Minister.” Chavan did not stop here, he further emphasized that Trump’s working style is such that no one can stand before him.
Ruckus in political circles
As soon as the video went viral on social media, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) called it against the dignity of the post of Prime Minister. BJP leaders say that due to fear of electoral defeat, Congress leaders are now making such childish and indecent statements. If you look at it, attacking each other in politics is nothing new, but for the Prime Minister of the country to use a word like ‘kidnap’ is really surprising.
Why question the friendship between Modi and Trump?
The whole world knows that from ‘Howdy Modi’ to ‘Namaste Trump’, there is a unique rapport between the two leaders. In such a situation, Prithviraj Chavan’s indication was probably that Trump’s return to power may increase pressure on India’s foreign policy or trade agreements. But the style that Chavan chose to present this matter now seems to be becoming a noose around his neck.
In the end that’s all…
At the time of elections, to convey their message to the public, leaders often say such things in enthusiasm which become controversies. Perhaps no one expected such a statement from a balanced leader like Prithviraj Chavan. Now it remains to be seen what clarification Congress gives on this matter or how much more fire this spark will create in the election environment.
