What is behind Gandhi family’s choice of Mallikarjun Kharge as Leader of Opposition in Rajya Sabha?

#PoliGraph
Senior Congress leader Mallikarjun Kharge is likely to replace Ghulam Nabi Azad as the leader of opposition in the Rajya Sabha and the party has written to the chairman of the Upper House of Parliament in this regard, sources said. The Congress has written to Rajya Sabha Chairman M Venkaiah Naidu for appointing Kharge to the post of leader of opposition after Azad’s retirement, they added. In this episode, Senior Associate Editor Neelam Pandey and Political Editor DK Singh discuss why the Gandhi family chose Kharge as the next Leader of Opposition in Rajya Sabha.

Congress should he condemned for leaving us with no choice. Just imagine, how damaging it'd be.to the country if all this internal politics was happening while INC was in power.

[NairAthul]

Interesting you say "Gandhi Family's choice" and not "UPAs" or "INCs". Guess it's pretty clear to everyone that the Gandhis are self styled monarchs.

[rjsaska]

Main reason is Mr Rahul Ghandi is incapable and he wanted a "domesticated" politician who wouldn't bite his/her master.

[sumittiwari-hyjo]

Simple reason: He's old and never questions Gandu family.

As always DK & Neelam getting viewers uncluttered, unbiased information. These two along with Snehesh are the future of Indian journalism (and the best lot thePrint has got besides Sg. PS: Ila Patnaik is good too.)

Congress under the Gandhi family is such an embarrassment.

[harathyraghavan]

Rahul’s performance in parliament was extremely bad.

D.K. Singh always gives an amazing Neutral balanced analysis and that is what I really like about the Print

[lord_britu]

Please don't mind.DKS resembles so much like Aurturo from Money Heist n Neelam resembles that of Manyata (Sanjay Dutt's wife)

[redmaester]

Same reason Manmohan Singh became the PM

[lord_britu]

This is the best tag team .Dks' wisdom n Neelam's grace❤️

[manuvasista]

Fun fact: most of malls in Bangalore are indirectly owned by Kharge

Pappu image a statement Sirji... Really funny

[nksingh]

Why congress more aggressive outside parliament whereas not very vocal inside parliament...are they just lying or don’t have any substance,

[dharinidevadiga]

No future for Congress party as long as it revolves around first family

[norisjas]

Sashi Tharoor and Kapil Sibal could have been selected..Congress is digging its on grave....

[vikramekshinge]

Kharge's Loyalty towards his owners😂.

[harrybv]

Pappu image was crafted by the opposition?. Haha. What an expert you are.

Khadge screams so loud and his voice is so irritating, even Congressis sitting behind wince in agony. He was on same post in 2014-2019

I would never hire a builder to build my house knowing his company is in a complete mess,
How can we vote for a party to build and manage our country, knowing the party is in a mess and not even willing to make changes.
