Congress leader Manish Tewari cited the ousting of leaders in Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, and Nepal, claiming it highlights the generational rejection of entitlement. He stressed that these events have significant national security implications.

The BJP seized on Tewari's words, particularly his use of 'nepokids,' to criticize Congress's Rahul Gandhi, labeling him the 'ultimate Nepo Kid.' Tewari, part of a Congress rebel group, countered that his remarks were not an attack on party politics but rather a call for a broader perspective on regional issues.

BJP representatives echoed Tewari's critics, asserting that India's past electoral decisions against dynastic politics reflect the public's disapproval. Tewari maintained that his comments should be viewed through a national security lens, urging for a mature analysis of geopolitical dynamics in Asia.
