Congress Confused On PM’S Security

Confusion, it looks has now taken the centre stage in the thought process of Congress party and its leadership. Since the BJP Govt.took over the reigns of power from Congress in 2014, opposing Modi has become the past time of almost every Congressman, big or small. All seem to be obsessed with ridiculing Modi for almost everything he does for the country and for the benefit of the citizens.

“Oppose Modi, Ignore India” is the new tag line of their political stance. National priorities are nowhere seen in their political interests and agenda.

Now, a fresh controversy regarding the lapse in PM’s security in Punjab has put the Congress on a back foot. In fact, Congress has been going helter skelter in order to have some face saving in a situation of humiliation which has been designed by none other than its own party members. Be it the CM of Punjab Charanjeet singh Channi, Punjab Congress President Navjot singh Sidhu, CM of Rajasthan Ashok Gehlot, Congress stalwart Digvijay singh and a large number of other Congressmen. Everyone has put Congress in a state of embarrassment. In normal circumstances when PM visits some state it is the protocol that CM,Chief Secy. and the DGP Police have to be present on the arrival. But all the three were not there to receive the PM. This was taken a very serious note of, both by the Central Govt. and the BJP at the same time.

Well, the security of PM happens to be of a prime importance for the State which the PM is visiting. And, no question of taking it in a casual way, as it was by the Punjab administration with regard to providing the PM a foolproof passage on all routes. Police was seen not performing their duty the way it was supposed to. Police DGP had cleared the route for PM while briefing the SPG ( The Special Protection Group ) of the PM. Which means that PM is cleared to pass through the route assigned for his cavalcade. But, the reality was something very disturbing and dangerous. The route on which PM was on his way to the place of event, was in fact obstructed by the protestors who could have been stopped by the state police for the security reasons. But, going as per the statements of the protesting farmer leaders, it was the police who gave them the information about the PM’s route. And this is what is unusual and quite surprisingly doubtful. How can an information which is supposed to be kept secret by the police, be shared with the people who are suspected protestors.

For about twenty minutes PM’s cavalcade got stuck on a highway flyover. And, the SPG had a challenging task at hands. Though the SPG Commandos are trained for all sorts of eventualities but the vehicle in which the PM was sitting was dangerously stuck and anything could have happened. People allegedly termed as farmer protestors, were at a few metres distance from the PM’s car and this can not be a coincidence.

It was only after twenty to twenty five minutes of anxiety, insecurity, risk, endangerment and a direct threat to PM’s life, that the SPG decided to take the PM back to the place of origin without any untoward incident Enroute. A big and unprecedented threat was averted and PM returned safe.

Now, what can we infer from all this? It may look like a Drama, Farce and an election stunt, as most of the Congress leaders put it. But, it can not be as simple as that. It has happened with a lot of thought process behind it. After all it is directly related with the security of the Prime Minister. you can not brush it off so easily. there are agencies who are expected to provide a reliable and unfailing security to the Prime Minister of the country. Instead a series of unruly, irresponsible and silly statements started coming from the ruling Congress party in Punjab and all its leadership needless to mention the Chief Minister Charanjeet Singh Channi.

You can hate an individual, you can hate Narinder Modi, how can you hate the Prime Minister of your own country.

Prime Minister is the Legislative head and it is the position you have to respect and protect. As CM of Punjab you are expected to follow a protocol to receive the PM. Instead you make lame excuses about contracting Covid as such not in a position to receive him. And the very next day you sit in a press conference and resort to very irresponsible utterances not suiting to the position of a CM. You tell the media that PM and the BJP did it with an intention. And that there was no threat to pm’s life. No stones were pelted, no sticks were fired, no bullets shot, then how come PM could get hurt. How ridiculous of a person of the stature of a CM. So, this implies that if unfortunately any untoward incident would take place then only the State administration would come into action. This is what the CM of Punjab Mr. Channi said. It did not stop there. The State President of Congress party Navjot Singh Sidhu went a step ahead and described the incident as Farce, an election stunt, a drama by the PM. Well, if one goes by the track record of Mr.Sidhu one can’t expect something very weighty coming from him as well.

In fact, all that can very easily be drawn out of a very callous behaviour of Congress leaders on an issue that would have shuck the entire administrative machinery of Punjab including the Chief Secretary and The DGP, is that Congress cannot digest the popularity of PM Modi, both at the National as well as the Global arena. And, ironically they hate him to the extent that they undermine their duties and responsibilities they owe to the Nation. This is not only a sad state of affairs but a very serious and grave concern too, for the entire Nation. People of India need to give a very concerted thought to what this age old political party is up to.

A thorough investigation is what needs to be undertaken at the central and the state level for establishing beyond all doubts and speculations, as to what went wrong. And if there is any concrete clue to some game plan or a pre planned conspiracy for putting the life of PM at a risk, that should be brought to light and all those involved should be dealt with sternly and brought to book as soon as possible.

If some international bodies bent upon spreading hatred in India are in some way or the other involved in hatching the deadly conspiracy the Embassies in those countries should immediately be brought into action and asked to make concrete headways in taking the respective Governments into confidence and forge the arrest of such Anti national elements.

Some political parties of Punjab even said in front of press that the assassination plan was being hatched in the office of Congress party and the names they mentioned in their press statements are directly putting the Congress party on the dock. And seriously the party and its leadership will have to make a lot of explanations in order to come clean on everything.

However,all said and done, nothing is really going fine with the Congress party since Mr. Modi took over as the Prime Minister of India in 2014. All sorts of irresponsible and baseless narratives of Congress are the brain child of its Modi hate stance. And this hateful obsession has inadvertently intruded their thinking capabilities that too to the extent of an irreversible damage. It seems as if the party is already in a state of political hibernation and nothing but something very miraculous and unheard of can actually take them out of this uncertainty, ambiguity and unpredictability.

If someone needs to draw a conclusion from all that is happening on the political arena of Congress in the Country, the only conclusion that one can reach to is ; CONFUSION. Since last almost seven years Congress desperately wants to see Rahul Gandhi as their Party Chief, but the moment they do something towards that they are subjected to unprecedented humiliation. So a very frustrating political party though very old finds itself VERY CONFUSED and the security breach in Punjab on PM’s cavalcade is no less than a ‘SELF GOAL’ .
