Overview
- Singh clarified he opposes BJP-RSS ideology, insisted Congress is united under the Nehru-Gandhi leadership, and cited Rahul Gandhi’s ongoing decentralisation push.
- His earlier post shared an archival photo of a young Narendra Modi seated on the floor near L.K. Advani, calling it evidence of the RSS-BJP’s organisational power.
- Responses inside Congress split: Shashi Tharoor backed calls to strengthen the organisation, Udit Raj acknowledged factionalism and vacancies, while Nidhi Chaturvedi sought Singh’s expulsion.
- Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy highlighted Sonia Gandhi’s role in elevating P.V. Narasimha Rao and Manmohan Singh, a message read as a counter to Singh’s post.
- The BJP amplified the row, with spokesperson Shehzad Poonawalla alleging a Rahul-versus-Priyanka divide, even as BJP leader Kailash Vijayvargiya praised Singh as “courageous.”
