New Delhi: An animated video by India Today depicted Congress leader Rahul Gandhi wrestling BJP National President JP Nadda as the exit polls projected a clear lead for the Congress in Haryana. The video sparked numerous reactions on social media, with many highlighting that PM Modi is often not presented as the BJP’s face when the party appears to be losing elections.

Several users pointed out how JP Nadda becomes the focus during election setbacks, while PM Modi is prominently featured during the party’s victories. The reactions ranged from sympathy for Nadda to sarcastic commentary.

Congress leader Pawan Khera tweeted, “अगले जन्म में मोहे नड्डा ना कीजे….,” implying that Nadda’s position is unenviable, especially during election losses.

X user Raju Verma wrote, “ये इंसान @JPNadda बेचारे बेइज्जती सहने के लिए ही पैदा हुए हैं.. किस्मत कैसा भी देना भगवान बस नड्डा जी जैसा मत देना,” indicating that Nadda is put in embarrassing situations repeatedly.

User Harmeet Kaur expressed frustration over the media’s coverage, stating, “When winning ... It's Modi Modi everywhere. When losing.... replace Modi & plaster Nadda Ji's pic. And then you people get offended, when we call you Godi Media.”

Another user, VIKRAM (@Gobhiji3), added humor to the discussion, saying, “TV पर आ गया नड्डा, मतलब बीजेपी का बैठ गया भट्ठा. हरियाणा में बहुत बुरा हुआ भक्तों के साथ.” He suggested that Nadda’s appearance as BJP’s face is a clear indicator of the party’s decline in Haryana.

Another user, D (@Deb_livnletliv), commented on the clear shift in strategy, “When you see Nadda as the face of BJP, you know the tables have turned and loss is written clearly all over the place.”

Many netizens have also shared memes, ridiculing the absence of Modi’s image and highlighting how Nadda becomes the fall guy during tough times.

The video and subsequent online discussion have brought attention to the BJP’s strategy of promoting PM Modi’s image during winning streaks and shifting focus to other party leaders, like JP Nadda, when defeat looks clear.
