Congress Does Not Look Outside The Gandhi Family: Anurag Thakur

All members of the family have already seen the result of their attempts

Mumbai: Union Minister Anurag Thakur criticised the Congress and said that the party does not look outside the Gandhi family. “Rahul Gandhi took charge but didn’t get any seats in West Bengal.

All members of the family have already seen the result of their attempts, he said.

Earlier Rahul Gandhi was at the helm but their account could not be opened in West Bengal. In Uttar Pradesh, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra was in-charge… and the party lost deposits and got just two seats.”

“Now Sonia Gandhi is holding the responsibility. Yet time and again, the same question is raised… if the leadership roles will be limited to one family regardless of potential or ability. Till the time Congress finds an answer to this puzzle, it won’t find its way out of the crisis.”

Anurag Thakur’s remarks were not much different from what his BJP allies had said about the defeat of the Congress in the recent assembly elections. The Congress was voted out of power in Punjab while it could not manage to regain the lost ground in Manipur, Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh or Goa – the four states the BJP easily retained.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi had said that the results were proof that “the people had rejected dynastic politics”.

Thakur’s comments also came as Sonia Gandhi spoke of the revival of her party at a meeting on Tuesday morning.

The Congress chief also targeted the NDA for attacking the opposition, which has been trying to put up a united front against the BJP.
