Congress hates opinion polls.
That's what the Congress
said in their reply to Election Commission. And it's not a rocket science to
understand that Congress doesn't hate opinion polls, but it
hates opinion polls which show Congress losing. Practically no-one
wants to hear the criticism, that to repeatedly. It's a human tendency to stop it or, at best try to avoid it. And Congress is trying both. Boycotting the debate
& complaining to EC. What else can Congress do, man? Polls after polls BJP was projected as the winner, unless the
survey is conducted by AAP. AAP through its very transparent mechanism ensured
that it wins. Yes, it is also understandable if AAP doesn't win in its own
poll, then why would they make it public, no?
Coming back to Congress,
Sanjay Jha has been the face saver for them on TV, night after night he is trying to
defend the indefensible. Though he himself loses his face many times, but tries to save Congress's face. Never mind his logic, he tries his best to spin any
argument on its head and hijack the whole argument, turning it into a mess.
Looking at Jha's such special abilities, handling the debates on opinion polls
would not been hard for him. Somehow Congress felt it's better to
boycott such debates on opinion polls. In other words, whenever there are
debates on opinion polls, Sanjay Jha can have rest. Though during such resting holidays, Jha surely will watch Arnab's show. Feeling relaxed & not at all threatened
by Arnab's loud voice, for the first time. Happy holidaying Mr. Jha. We won't
miss you.
Congress is a giant
party, Jairam opined. So what if there are no spokespersons on TV to defend
Congress? There are so many journalists who can do that job. On some channels,
even such journalists are also not required, anchors are
sufficient. All these mean, Congress's decision of boycotting won't harm the
party, much. But this decision would definitely save millions of viewer's
from Sanjay Jha.
