Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in a fierce attack on the Congress and the Gandhis in parliament today, said "talent is the first casualty of dynastic politics" and listed how the country would have been different "if Congress had not there". "The Congress's problem is it has never thought beyond its dynasty. The biggest threats to democracy are dynastic parties. And when a family becomes paramount then the first casualty is talent," PM Modi said in Rajya Sabha, replying to a debate on government policies. "People wonder what if there had been no Congress. They are stuck in India is Indira, Indira is India," the PM said, referring to a Congress phrase for one of its iconic leaders, former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi.
