Newly elevated Congress Working Committee (CWC) member Shashi Tharoor, MP, on Friday said the Centre’s opaque and seemingly impromptu decision to convene the Lok Sabha for five days from September 18 to 22 was perplexing and cloaked in conspiratorial silence.
“There is no clarity on the agenda. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)‘s visceral fear that voters will reject the party in the 2024 polls might have prompted the move,” Mr. Tharoor said at a press conference.
He said the BJP’s One Nation One election scheme was myopic. It would yield no tangible political dividend for the BJP.
