She Once Called Rahul Gandhi a 'Rakhi Brother' I Raebareli BJP MLA Aditi Singh on Leaving Congress

From being a young MLA from Raebareli, following in the footsteps of her father Late Akhilesh Singh, to rebelling against her then party, Congress, to now being a BJP leader - Aditi Singh has had quite a political journey. On the 52nd episode of Barkha Dutt's podcast she discusses all this and more.

Rahul is best please support

[@chucha2]

So, let me clarify. This individual left Congress citing a lack of access to the party's upper echelon and a failure of top Congress members to engage with their constituencies effectively. Fair enough, that argument holds weight. But guess what she did next? She joined a party whose leader, the current Prime Minister, hasn't held a press conference in the past decade. Press conferences are crucial for addressing journalists' concerns and conveying the public's voice to the PM. If she expects us to believe her reasoning, she needs to present a more coherent argument. As for Ms. Dutt, your KZbin channel seems to be stagnating. Subscriptions aren't increasing much, and your choice of guests, like her, often leads to superficial discussions and fails to address significant issues (as illustrated above). Perhaps taking lessons from Mr. Karan Thapar on conducting interviews would be beneficial.

[@ankkitraj]

More than worrying about PMs press conferences, Congress and their supporters should spend their precious time introspecting and come out atleast as a relevant opposition. She at least joined someone who did not do a press conference rather than continuing with people who have had a history of subverting the freedom of press or a party that is known for glorifying gundaraj.

Politics is a dirty game often also played by journalists to favour the side they are playing for and its clearly evident in the recent interviews of Barkha . Aditi's allegations against Priyanka were only mentioned by her ex-husband and not directly to her. However, she didn't bother to cross-check and find the actual facts. Instead, she narrated this to all your RW channels as it favored her party's politics. These shallow politicians have no standing of their own so they will only depend upon these half cooked stories and switching parties.
