Political commentator Priyam Gandhi Modi has written a lot about the Congress Party in his new book.
In his book “What If There Was No Congress: The Uncensored History of Independent India”, he claims that the Congress’s path to power in the near future looks very difficult, if not impossible.
He also says that Mahatma Gandhi had once advised to abolish Congress.
Political commentator Priyam Gandhi Modi has claimed in his new book that the Congress-ruled India has lagged so far behind the India that has taken shape in the last decade that even the existence of the party is in danger and returning to power is difficult. Far from it, its chances of remaining even as the main opposition party are fading.
In his book he says that if Congress had not been in power for most of the last 80 years, how different India would have been.
In the book “What If There Was No Congress: The Uncensored History of Independent India”, published by Rupa Publications, Priyam Gandhi discusses some of the key events that have shaped India’s political history over the last 80 years – Partition, Kashmir, governance, scams, democracy and He has written his views on its obstacles, economic policy, intellectual colonization and foreign policy.
Priyam claimed, “The people of the country have been choosing progress over corruption, truth over fabricated lies, security over terrorism and progress over obstacles.
In my opinion, it is very difficult, if not impossible, for Congress to return to power in the near future.” In the book, he said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi had raised a question in the winter session of Parliament in February 2022 that “What would have happened if there was no Congress in India?”, then India’s intellectual fraternity, historians and the army of social media etc. He was forced to look for answers and some supported his views while others opposed them.
mistakes of congress leadership
He said that “Congress played an important role in the Indian freedom struggle, although its leadership also made some mistakes, due to which undivided India was divided.”
Priyam raised the question that if Mahatma Gandhi’s call to end Congress had been accepted, what would India have been like today? He said, “To understand why the Mahatma (Gandhi) ultimately gave such advice, I have attempted to understand the circumstances surrounding the time of Indian independence and the elements within it which were the result of hundreds of years of colonial rule.” “
Priyam wrote that his book is an attempt to understand the working style of Congress in its current situation. According to the author, she has tried to study historical events from the four lenses of ‘partition, territorial integrity, economic policy and governance’.
