Congress in a tizzy over Modi’s popularity

Saswat Panigrahi

Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi’s induction into the BJP Parliamentary Board — the apex decision making body of the party — has sent Congress into a tizzy.
Senior Congress leader and Union Minister Kapil Sibal said Modi will pose a challenge to the BJP in the next general election. As if that was not enough, Congress spokesperson Rashid Alvi went on to add that the Gujarat Chief Minister will prove to be ‘Yamraj’ for the BJP in the 2014 election.
Congress is finding it extremely difficult to come to terms with Modi being given new responsibilities in the BJP. Modi’s popularity is growing by leaps and bounds. The Gujarat Chief Minister has started giving Congress sleepless nights. The Congress has started realising that it will be thrown out of power in the next general election. The party lacks ideas and leaders to tackle Modi.
