    NEW DELHI: As Congress MP from Sivaganga Karti P Chidambaram said there was a need for a new political party focused purely on urban issues, which avoids emotive issues like religion, caste and language, Congress leadership chose not to make any official comment.Seniors in the party said it was best to ignore the remarks, with one jibing that no one was losing sleep over remarks made either by former Union finance minister P Chidambaram in May on the state of the INDIA bloc or now by his son Karti.“In my opinion, a new political party (in India) purely focusing on urban issues — ease of living, quality of infrastructure and public services — devoid of emotive issues (religion, caste and language) will have a fair level of acceptance. (Since none of the establishment parties seriously address these issues or put it in the forefront of their agenda),” Karti said on X on Friday. He later reposted it with a suggestion of a name – ‘National Alliance (for) Governance And Renewal NAGAR’.In May, Congress veteran P Chidambaram’s remarks expressing concern that the INDIA bloc was no longer intact had not gone down well with party leadership.
