It has been observed that none amongst the entire non BJP opposition parties except the Congress and the CPM, has taken any formidable stand on the most controvertial issues dominating the the national scene like Rafael n Banking frauds etc despite the unambiguous fact that there have been lot of efforts for the grand allaince of the anti BJP parties in view the fast approaching national elections.

If one analyses the issues being discussed and talked about in the recent poll campaigns its primarily the Rafale issue and banking frauds that have overtaken the issues of demonetisation, GST, unemployment and even increasing prises of petro products including the farmers suicides, SC ST act, reservation and the agrarian economy, though at the local level these issues do get discussed.

It has been visualised that in the recent past none of the leaders of the non BJP opposition except Rahul Gandhi and to some extent Sitaram Yachuri of CPM n the CPI leaders, whether they are Mamta Bannerjee of TMC, Mayawati of BSP, Akhilesh Yadav and Mulayam.Singh Yadav of SP, Ajit Singh of RLD, Om Prakash Choutala of INLD or Sharad Pawar of INC or even Tejasvi Yadav of RLD has raised any voice of dissent at their end nor have ever discussed to make it their election issue during the forth coming general elections of 2019 except the Congress party which had exclusively discussed it in its highest decision making body CWC n also included them as the main election issues.

Not only this but the Congress high command has also issued directives to all the state presidents as well as the party workers to hold seminars, discussions and protest demonstrations in their respective states to mobilse the people against the alleged irregularities committed in the Rafael deal. And the demonstrations highlighting the Rafael Jet model with playcards castigating the incumbent government in finalising this deal are taking place in all the states of the country. Just two days ago when the Prime minister Narendra Modi visited Dehradun to inaugurate the Uttarakhand Investors Summit, the flagship programme of the UK, BJP government under which MOU’s worth Rs. 70000 crores habe already been signed, the Uttarakhand state Congress committee held a protest sit in and demonstration in Dehradun against Rafale deal and flew black balloons as a mark of protest against the PM not speaking a single word of clarification on the Rafale deal.

Similarly in Assam, Delhi, UP and other states of the country several demonstrations took place opposing the deal and exposing the NDA government. But none of the UPA alliance parties or Trinamool Congress, BSP, SP, regional parties except CPM n CPI had protested on this count. This non cooperative attitude of the opposition parties does not augur well for them in future as far as the question of formation of the Mahagathbandhan is concerned.

If we go by this non cooperative attitude of the opposition parties to Congress on imporyant issues such as Rafael etc it looks clear that either they want to see the Congress party in bad shape thus isolating it from the future unity developments or wanted to sideline Rahul Gandhi from the race of Prime ministership. The recent going alone of BSP chief Mayawati in Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh n Chattisgarh and publicly castigating the Congress leader Digvijay Singh using words like swarthi etc speaks of the fact that she herself want to be the prime minister of India though it sounds a mere dream minus the honest grand alliance of the non BJP opposition at the national level. Mamta Bannerjee is also another over ambitious woman who sounds to be more a hypocrite than an honest leader towards forming a non BJP grand alliance.

Meanwhile the Congress president Rahul Gandhi addressed a press conference at the AICC headquarter in New Delhi today and asked for the prime minisyer’s resignation over the Rafael deal. Rahul Gandhi questioned the ongoing visit of the Defence minister Dr. Nirmala Sitaram to France and asked what was the dire necessity to visit France now. What is being cooked there these days that he was compelled to go to France asked Rahul.

He said the prime minister assumed power on the issue of eradicating corruption but today he is himself allegedly involved in it.

He has been accused of this charge. Hence he should speak on it else resign from the post.

He catagorically said that the Congress Party had asked for the JPC probe but the government has rejected it. He said that the former French president has clearly disclosed that he was asked to give the Rafale offset Contract to Reliance Defence and now the senior executive of Dassault has said that there was a precondition for making the firm of Anil Ambani as the partner.
