Your writing on the future of Rahul Gandhi and of Congress party is very timely and thought provoking.
Congress party is the oldest party in India and it was responsible for freedom struggle and it produced several top Indian leaders. It was the ruling party in central government for very many years and in most of the Indian states. During the last term of office the coalition government was evolved in several political scandal resulting loss of several cores of money to the government.
Sonia Gandhi is the Congress President for more than 20 years and she never allowed other members of the party. She appointed her son to be the vice-president who is politically novice, Rahul Gandhi has no political experience. Sonia Gandhi wanted to continue Italian dynasty and wanted to make her son to be future Prime Minter of India. This does not work.
If a party loses the general election, the leader should resign and elect a new person. This did not happen in the congress party. In recent years India has two major parties Congress in the south and the BJP. Recently in Delhi elections the Congress party was wiped out completely. The regional organisations are run by his cronies. The Indians and the congress party should realise India needs the Congress party and it needs to be reorganised. Somehow or other Sonia Gandhi and her son are destroying the Congress party. There should be some political and sinister motive to stick to power
Now it time for Indians to get rid of Sonia‘s families dynasty rule. Indians are hero-worshipers and slave mentality that foreigners are better than true Indians
