Sir,
This has reference to the article ‘Rahul refuses the responsibility’ DE June 7.
The Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi has once again let an opportunity go out of his hand. The refusal to accept the responsibility of an Opposition leader’s role in the new Lok Sabha has given his image a further beating after he failed to bring his party back to power. Had Rahul accepted to lead from the front, it would have provided him an opportunity to refurbish his image as a political leader and learn the nitty gritty of working with other small political parties to build an effective opposition that could counter the new Government on issues pertaining to national interest.
Instead Rahil Gandhi has preferred to sit on the last benches thus shying away from his role. This attitude has caused resentment among rank and file against the vice-president.
In case he wants to retain hold over his party cadres, he has lead from the front. This only could create confidence among his supporters and only then there are chances that the party may bounce back to power.
Yours etc…
