Shashi Tharoor lashed out openly in the House

Congress MP Shashi Tharoor on Tuesday opposed the introduction of the developed Bharat-Ji Ram Ji Bill 2025 in the Lok Sabha. Referring to a song from Dev Anand’s famous film ‘Hare Rama Hare Krishna’, he took a dig at the ruling party, ‘Look O crazy people, don’t do this work, don’t defame Ram’s name.’

‘Mahatma Gandhi’s Ram Rajya was not a political project’

Tharoor said, ‘Mahatma Gandhi’s vision of Ram Rajya was never a purely political project. It was a socio-economic blueprint based on strengthening villages. His unwavering belief in Gram Swaraj was a key part of that vision.

Shashi Tharoor claimed that by naming the Father of the Nation in the original Act, the deep connection was acknowledged that true employment guarantee and progress should come from the grassroots level only, which reflected his principle of putting the last man first. He alleged that removing Mahatma Gandhi’s name from the bill amounts to snatching away its moral basis and historical validity.

Tharoor’s sarcasm, ‘Look crazy people, don’t do this thing…’

According to government data released on Friday (August 29, 2025), the Indian economy in April-June increased at a rate of 7.8 percent, which was the highest among the five quarters before the US imposed tariff fee.

India is not dead, a ‘long -term economy’

The growth of gross domestic product (GDP) in the first quarter of the current financial year was mainly due to good performance of the agricultural sector. Commenting on GDP data, Union Agriculture Minister Shivraj Chauhan said, ‘Those who call it’ dead economy ‘should now understand that India is a’ long -lived economy ‘, which is on the way to realize the dream of a developed and completely self -sufficient India.’

The minister said that under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, India is moving towards fulfilling the resolution of a developed India. Citing government figures, Amit Malviya, the head of the BJP’s IT cell, said, “Bitter -speaking, confused, disappointed and dismissed for Rahul Gandhi, the same person who called India a ‘dead economy’, the latest figures of GDP are the strongest slap of reality.”

GDP growth rate 7.8 percent in the first quarter

Malaviya said in a post on ‘X’, “India recorded the GDP growth rate of 7.8 percent in the first quarter of FY 2025-26, which is a pioneer among the major economies of the world.” He claimed that only one thing is ‘dead’, it is the credibility of Rahul Gandhi.

At the same time, BJP national spokesperson Shahzad Poonawala said that the Indian economy is re-writing the global norms and the figures are showing 7.8 percent growth in the first quarter of FY 2025-26.

Lively, fruit-flourishing country’s economy
