BMC Debacle: Did Congress Ignore Sibal, Tewari's Warnings?
- •Congress's poor performance in the Mumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) elections highlights a significant crisis for the party.
- •Kapil Sibal suggested that Congress's declining graph since 2012 (31 seats) contrasts sharply with BJP's rise (31 to 89 seats).
- •Sibal warned that BJP's strategy involves marginalizing allies, eventually destroying their political existence.
- •Manish Tewari viewed the BMC results as public rejection of BJP's 'breaking and dismantling' politics.
- •Tewari noted that parties opposing BJP won over 50% of seats, indicating public disapproval of opportunistic politics.
Why It Matters: Congress's BMC election failure underscores a deep crisis, potentially due to ignoring internal strategic advice.
