Names and shames Congress leers

"Does any of se leers have it in m to create a storm by disagreeing with party? Those dissenters are well in ir 70s but ne of m has any prominence even in district level politics, let alone be state or national politics. Yet many of se political leers went on to become chief ministers or union ministers with support of Congress or Gandhi-Nehru family," editorial re while lambasting dissenters.

"P Chidambaram is a reputed lawyer but when did he become a politician? His differences with Rajiv Gandhi led him to quit Congress and formed his own party, but he h to shut his party due to public support. re are or senior leers such as Ghulam Nabi Az, Anand Sharma who worked for party, Kapil Sibal handled party's legal affairs for years, but today y all have lost ir spark towards party. Ahmed Patel is a great manr and viser but t a people's leer. Prithviraj Chavan requires support of Shar Pawar to win from Satara. All se leers demanding Sonia Gandhi to bring in active leership in party is ludicrous," opinionated piece said while seemingly forgetting fact that even Shiv Sena couldn't have come to power without support of NCP and Congress in Maharashtra.

"Rahul Gandhi was active and he took on Modi-Shah duo. He travelled across length and breth of country during assembly elections. Where were se letter warriors when re were below belt attacks on Gandhi by BJP?" asked editorial while backing Rahul Gandhi and condemning dissenters.

"Rahul Gandhi quit from post of president seemingly because of se people who plotted against him," Saamana piece alleged.

"When Sachin Pilot rebelled, Ashok Gehlot did all he could to save government in Rajasthan, but he did it for his own chair. Scindia was given everything by Congress yet he left party as Kamal Nath and Digvijaya Singh could t refrain from ir malice towards Scindia. Ashok Gehlot tried to get his son to win from Jodhpur during Lok Sabha elections but failed miserably. Kamal Nath's son won in Mhya Presh but Congress lost. In se state-wise political situations, Congress chiefs and prominent leers are only looking after ir own selves. party as a whole is never in ir calculations," editorial said while taking a swipe on dissenters and favouring Rahul and Sonia Gandhi.

Congress Working Committee's meeting on Monday witnessed a high octane drama as Rahul Gandhi attacked dissenters and alleged that y have colluded with BJP. For time being, Sonia Gandhi continues to remain interim Congress President for next six months as re was consensus in CWC meeting on who should be next Congress president. BJP, on or hand, slammed grand old party for still continuing to give leership in hands of Gandhis'.
