Accept Rahul’s challenge
Congress President Rahul Gandhi’s tweet which reads “Dear PM, Scared of
debating me on corruption? Let’s go open book, so you can prepare: 1. RAFALE +
Anil Ambani, 2. Nirav Modi, 3. Amit Shah + Demonetization, 3. Amit Shah +
Demonetization,” has received fairly good media coverage.
In
all fairness, NDA should not avoid meeting face to face the present
leader of the largest political party in opposition in Parliament. For
the
purpose, there is no need to waste PM’s time, as PM and Rahul Gandhi had
long
enough interaction when the latter moved a No-Confidence Motion not so
long ago
in Parliament which was telecast by electronic media worldwide.
Moreover, whatever the future holds, for now Gandhi is leading a party
which has less than 10 percent representation in Lok Sabha.
NDA should nominate a person who will be able to debate on the issues suggested
by Gandhi at a mutually agreed venue. If permissible under the Election Commission’s Code of
Conduct, the debate may be telecast by Door Darshan and broadcast by AIR which
would enlighten the voters who in turn can take an informed decision.
