Unending Miseries of Congress high command

 

Congress party’s failure to retain power at Centre is showing its adverse effects on the party. First, many of its leaders dare to blame Sonia and Rahul Gandhi for the party defeat, which stops them from taking charge of the party in the parliament. The elections effect further carried forward and betrays its chances to get leader of the opposition party status in Loksabha. Instead of feeling ashamed for its miserable situation, it is preparing for a legal fight with NDA government on this issue.

 

As if this is not enough, it got another jolt from Maharashtra and Assam. Two of its senior ministers- Narayan Rane in Maharashtra and Himanta Biswa Sarma in Assam have resigned to their posts in protest against party’s decision to continue the present Chief Ministers Prithivraj Chavan and Tarun Gogoi of Maharashtra and Assam, despite their failure to lead the party to victory in the recent elections.

 

There is no secret that both these rebel ministers are raising banner not because of the CMs' poor show in the elections, but as they both are eyeing CM posts. If the same yard stick is applied to their high command also, both Sonia and Rahul Gandhi have to quit their President and Vice President Posts of the party owing moral responsibility for the defeat. So, the Congress high command which initially prepared to replace both CMs has changed its mind fearing that the outgoing CMs will raise the banner against them both. But unfortunately they both struck with this dissident trouble.
