  "account": "During the Opposition march to the Supreme Court on Monday, AISA national president Neha Bora walked alongside Congress leaders Priyanka Gandhi Vadra and Rahul Gandhi. This proximity drew attention within the Congress party, particularly its student wing, the National Students’ Union of India (NSUI). Some party members felt that Bora's prominence during this joint protest could make the NSUI appear \"small.\" However, Congress leaders argued that this move was strategic, preventing the \"Cockroach Janta Party\" (CJP) from becoming the central focus of the protests. Congress leader Rahul Gandhi had previously shown caution towards the CJP and tweeted that \"Students. Youth. Journalists. The INDIA bloc. Different banners, one cause. All protests are one: citizens demanding their constitutional rights.\" The presence of Bora with the Congress leadership has sparked debate among Congress members about the party's increasing tilt towards the Left. While some see this as a move to widen the party's social base and connect with younger voters, others question the logic of aligning with a Left ideology that has been struggling electorally.",
