Mani Shankar Aiyar: 'Gandhian, Nehruvian, Rajivian' but Not a 'Rahulian'

  • Congress veteran Mani Shankar Aiyar stated he is a 'Gandhian', 'Nehruvian', and 'Rajivian', but not a 'Rahulian'.
  • Aiyar explained he cannot be a 'Rahulian' as Rahul Gandhi is 30 years younger and he hasn't had the opportunity to work with him.
  • He clarified he is not an 'Indiravian' due to his disapproval of Indira Gandhi's declaration of Emergency.
  • Aiyar recounted personal connections to Mahatma Gandhi, Jawaharlal Nehru, and Rajiv Gandhi shaping his political identity.
  • His remarks come amidst strained ties with the Congress, following his comments supporting Kerala CM Pinarayi Vijayan.
