Mani Shankar Aiyar’s false pass

Veteran Congress leaders have been habitual criminals. Right in the middle of the Congress camp in Burari before the 2014 elections, Mani Shankar Aiyar called the then Chief Minister of Gujarat a “chaiwala”.

This marked the beginning of a very successful campaign by the BJP, projecting the PM as a man from a humble background who was powerful and entitled. Gandhi family, The BJP organized a series of ‘chai pe charcha’ and it worked for both Modi and the BJP as the results showed.

But Iyer didn’t learn a lesson. Instead, he reiterated it when the Congress was putting up a brave show in the 2018 Gujarat state elections. The initial ground report was that Rahul Gandhi The yatra with Hardik Patel, Jignesh Mevani and Alpesh Thakor was resonating on the ground. But a few days before the election, Aiyar again reprimanded Modi. Immediately, the tables turned. Congress tried to do some damage control by suspending Iyer, but by then the damage was done. PM Modi and BJP took advantage of the opportunity and won the election.
