Texas : Congress leader and Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi said Prime Minister Narendra Modi experienced a “psychological collapse” when he realised his party would not win 300-400 seats in the Lok Sabha elections. “Halfway through the campaign, Modi did not think he was even close to 300-400 seats.
When he said he had spoken directly to God, we knew. We knew we had broken him. We saw it as a psychological collapse,” Rahul Gandhi said in an interview at Georgetown University – School of Foreign Services in Washington DC.
During his address in Dallas, Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha and Congress MP Rahul Gandhi addressed important issues such as unemployment, education and technology. He highlighted the employment crisis affecting India and Western countries, advocating for India to increase its production capabilities. Gandhi said that while many countries are grappling with unemployment, countries like China and Vietnam are thriving, attributing this disparity to the historic shift in global production dynamics.
He pointed out that manufacturing has shifted from the West to countries like South Korea, Japan, and currently China, primarily due to the West’s withdrawal from manufacturing sectors. Gandhi emphasised the need for India to re-evaluate its manufacturing strategies, ensuring they are in line with democratic values. Reflecting on his Bharat Jodo Yatra, he shared how the trip transformed his political outlook by integrating the concept of love into his political ideology. On the topic of education, he criticised the prevailing neglect for skilled professionals and advocated a more harmonious relationship between education and vocational training.
Regarding Artificial Intelligence, Gandhi recognised its dual potential to displace and generate employment, and called for a careful and strategic approach to managing its impacts. These insights were shared during a live session with students of the University of Texas at Dallas. ( PLC & GT )
