The BJP and Narendra Modi are successful by-products of the Congress’s shocking apathy, its self-inflicted paralysis. While the Bharat Jodo Yatra was a blockbuster for Rahul’s political brand, the party still appears to be in Stone Age. Good people continue to leave; it still allows the BJP to set the agenda and rarely sets the storyboard on fire.
Sanjay Jha
former Congress spokesperson
What is going on with the planes bringing back our people—it is so shocking for me. But it needs time for me to brew it, to know what one would say about it…. You have got to lead people into a world; you have to make them see the world anew. Right now, the situation is so horrific that I need time to process it.

Unprovoked wars are not intended to achieve a lofty goal but to advance a partisan ideology. The BJP has a penchant for starting unprovoked wars. The Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and the Uniform Civil Code (UCC) are examples.
P. Chidambaram
Congress leader
I work every day, I exercise, I play golf, and I still manage to work hard. Keep aside one-and-a-half hours for yourself, and you still have 22.5 hours in a day. There is plenty of time to manage work-life balance, but don’t make it fashionable to say people should not work hard.
Amitabh Kant
G20 sherpa
For me, fitness is no longer just about aesthetics—it has become a deeply spiritual and mental practice. I train regularly, but it is not about the number of hours; it is about consistency and balance. I make sure to incorporate different forms of exercise—whether it is strength training, yoga, or dance, because it keeps things interesting and helps me stay motivated.
