THE FAVORITE WHIPPING BOY
Some times I feel sorry for Rahul Gandhi, the scion of Gandhi Nehru family. If Rajiv ushered in a fresh air when he took over the mantle under tyring circumstances in 1984 when his mother feel to assasin's bullets, Rahul was all the more forthcoming in being receptive to new ideas with genuine concern for the poor. He relentlessly fought for constitutional status for the Lokpal Bill which was ridiculed by all , he crafted a genuine land acquisition bill ensuring fair compensation for the land, he fought for the rights of tribals over their inhabitation and stalled the proposal to gift niyamgiri hills to MNC Vedanta. Many development plans have uprooted many lives and there were no mourners for those who lost their livelihood. Rahul stood for their rights which was later vindicated by Supreme Court of India who ruled that consent of gramsabas necesaary for such acquisitions. Rahul called the ordinace which sought to nullify a SC verdict on convicted netas, non sense An Arvind Kejriwal or Modi stating this would have been hailed but Rahul was nailed for supposedly disrespecting his Prime Minister. Rahul all along resisted in being a member of MMS cabinet lest he becomes a parallel power centre,again media was gunning for him for arrogating power without responsibility.
Now Rahul has more enemies within his party for he has challenged the status-quo. Upset with this he has sought a sabbatical,an ill timed one though and has earned reprimand yet again. TOI has said he has become irrelevant no matter he comeback after sabbatical or not. History will prove otherwise. AK was written of before he scripted his comeback when every one is seen falling for him indian media is plain bull shit
