Varun Gandhi strikes again!
Varun Gandhi strikes again. This time, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) boy is at war with…the journalists.
Newspaper reports say that a group of writers from Uttar Pradesh is accusing Varun Gandhi of “misbehaving” with journalists. The scribes are requesting security measures while covering his events.
Mohan Kumar, president of Pilibhit Journalists Association, says that Varun Gandhi got angry at journalists on May 19th when he was asked to comment on the disappointing performance of BJP at the last elections.
Kumar says Varun Gandhi “attacked” journalists and even broke the camera of a TV journalist.
Bad, bad, bad idea.
Brat boy Gandhi should face the music. He should acknowledge his party’s bad performance and try to find solutions to put BJP back on track.
Whatever your political ideas are, a strong opposition is always needed in a democracy. India needs BJP for the simple reason that it represents the voices of millions of Indians.
Varun Gandhi is known as an impulsive and short-tempered man. But his attitude is counterproductive for himself and for his party. Starting a war with journalists is never a good idea for a politician. They’ll always have the last word.
Instead of lighting fires all over the place, M. Gandhi should get busy building bridges with the population. And fast.
