DEBATE (1)
The Congress party should promote Priyanka Gandhi instead of Rahul Gandhi. She can do infinitely better than Rahul to fight against Modi.

DEBATE(1)
Congress is rudderless and Rahul and Sonia are not actively organizing the party. Congress has a long way to go before Rahul can take on Modi.

DEBATE(2)
Rahul is no match for Modi. He stands no chance against Modi in 2024. If Congress strengthens its organization and its leaders and workers work on the ground, then only Rahul has a fighting chance in a few states.

DEBATE(1)
Why this debate for such a long period when there are many more things which can be debated upon? Rahul Gandhi is nowhere before Modi and even a kindergarten child knows this. Some people say he might come in 2029. He will never and he should never be the PM of India.

DEBATE(2)
Modi is not coming in 2024. He has done nothing to improve either to improve the Indian economy or its foreign policy which enhances his image in India. There are a few of his Andhbhakt who feel he has done a great job but not the majority. All constitutional institutions have been destroyed by the present regime. Hope someone else with a great vision of India may emerge in 2024 and may guide India from present turmoil and achieve its past glory for which India is known that is Vasudhave kutumbakam and Serv Dharm sambhav.

At least in 2024, Rahul has no chance. If he changes his style of working he can be a PM candidate only in 2029.

Narendra Modi is liked by crores of people across the country. He is much ahead.

As long as Modi is at the helm of power BJP is there and as long as Rahul Gandhi is at the helm of affairs in Congress the party can never come to power.

ICS Association lives on
Interesting news from Whispers! Anyone interested in public administrations in India needs to study the role of ICS to get a perspective. The British given their propensity for understatement say ‘They served India well’. Sardar Patel wanted to maintain the "steel frame" and modeled IAS after ICS. Even better than David Gilmour's book The Ruling Caste, is Phillip Woodruff's book The Men who Ruled India. The book tells us the story of the colonial period from ‘the other side’. While most people in India might have read the ‘national’ version of the British Raj story, this book gives an interesting counterpoint, which must be added to the mix to get a complete picture. The book gives an insider’s view on the way our land revenue system was formed – which, with minor changes, remains the same even today. One comes to know about the effort and application of mind put in forming the whole administrative and legal framework of the country, and then one understands why, despite 75 years of Independence, we are still unable to find viable ‘swadeshi’ alternatives to the same. Most importantly, it shows how a few good men can transform anarchy into stability, peace, and progress if their hearts are in the right place.

DEBATE (1)
Rahul Gandhi V/s Modi in 2024, Rahul Gandhi cannot make it as he doesn't have a solution to the hate and divisive politics of BJP and RSS imbibed into our political system. Irony is despite inflation and a high degree of unemployment, and destructive economy, voters are still in sleep mode. India is under destructive mode like Sri Lanka and Pakistan.

That is the best thing to happen for BJP.

Revenue growth hurdles
As against mandate of collecting revenue, nowadays, Azadi Ka Amrit like events are being organized and celebrated by the Revenue Department also outside office during normal working days hours frequently leaving behind efforts for revenue drives. Post covid situation there is spurt in large no. of official meetings /skill upgradation training programs through virtual mode webinars almost on every alternate day and same are mandatory to attend by majority of revenue officers . Sometimes webinars are organised one after another in single day itself. Afterward in balance available time , efforts are made for revenue growth/drive . It is good to celebrate AKAM events and attending webinars for skill upgradations in national interests but not at the cost of govt. revenue drive and its growth .That's too when revenue boards are facing acute shortages of field staff . All such staff need to be utilized efficiently for revenue drive /growth to achieve assigned targets. Events and webinars of national importance can be organised on Saturday or other Govt Holidays. It is ideal to conduct webinars after 8.30 p.m. only on Saturday /any govt holidays ( except Sunday) as revenue growth is extremely

No comparison between Modi and Rahul. In fact, Rahul is projected by his coterie.

Had he not resigned earlier he would have emerged as a strong contender for the post of PM.

DEBATE(1)
The difference between Narendra Modi and Rahul Gandhi is based on my unbiased study of 10+ years. Modi is a leader who knows how to convert adversity into an opportunity right from 2002. Pick any event. Rahul Gandhi is a political leader who knows how to convert opportunity into adversity.

The simplicity of Rahul Gandhi will not work in the political intrigue. Rahul Gandhi splits between a certain and uncertain political future. It is very difficult indeed for him to fight against communal forces.

Social media has made Rahul Gandhi a laughing stock. Everywhere Modi –Modi it enhances the image of the PM.

Rahul can’t take on Modi in the communal age

DEBATE(1)
This is neither the ‘Kalyug’ nor ‘digital’ age. This is a ‘communal’ age. The influence of communal age will work in politics. The voters of this country have been communally poisoned and votes are cast on a polarization basis. Therefore, Congress and other parties will lag behind BJP and pave the way for the latter to retain power. Rahul cannot take on Modi in politics in this age.

DEBATE(1)
Rahul Gandhi is no match to Narendra Modi today and is not likely to be in near future as well. Big question is - whether Narendra Modi is going to contest in 2024 or not considering that he will be 74 by that time and that means he will be only one year away from joining the club of 'Margdarshak". Up till now, Narendra Modi has not considered anybody for ministry who has crossed 75 and it is very unlikely that he will break this record. Nevertheless, whosoever BJP chose to field, the contest will be between some regional parties Vs BJP. Congress with Sonia or Rahul at the helm stands no chance.

If not empanelled, means dead wood
When an officer belonging to All India Service is not found fit to be empanelled in the list for the post of secretary or equivalent in the Central Government, he or she should be considered dead wood and be given compulsory retirement. Rejection at this level means an inefficient officer.

With ED summons, Rahul Gandhi will not be able to be aggressive. Modi seems confident.

Rahul Gandhi is in no hurry to become PM
Rahul Gandhi is much younger than Narendra Modi. I am of the view that Rahul Gandhi is not in a hurry to become PM and lead the country. The present political wave in favour of Modi will die down one day and pave the way for Rahul Gandhi.

Mention IFoS officers instead of IFS
It is my suggestion that an officer belongs to Indian Forest Service, you may please mention IFoS, instead of IFS. The full form of IFS is Indian Foreign Service.
