Stop sermonising others; introspect why BJP lost Varanasi seats in MLC polls: Congress slams PM
Congress leader Jairam Ramesh urged the party to reflect on the BJP’s defeat in the Varanasi legislative council elections, saying the loss signals broader voter dissatisfaction. He noted that voters in Varanasi, Nagpur, Lucknow, Prayagraj and Patna have effectively delivered a ‘no‑confidence’ verdict on the prime minister’s policies, calling for internal analysis rather than criticism of opponents.
