The perception in and around the people of India especially the media is that the fairer sex Priyanka Gandhi would be a better leader than Rahul Gandhi.It is widely believed that she would be able to win more votes and is a mass leader like Indira Gandhi.
On the contrary it is believed widely that Rahul Gandhi does not have the charisma that she may have ,has a low IQ,is a bunny of online trolls and not a mass leader who is able to generate votes and has not been able to ensure a win for the Congress.
The slogan from the party workers is “Priyanka laoo Congress Bachoo”.
I think Priyanka Gandhi being a magic wand and will be able to save the sinking ship of the Congress is a myth.I do not believe she in any way has the expertize to be in politics,forget winning it as the results of the recent UP elections do show.Her insistence on 105 seats at the cost of an alliance is very deplorable.Neither has she been able to win any seats in Amethi or make a big difference in Rae Bareli.
On the other Rahul Gandhi has more experience being in politics for sometime now and learnt the trade.He listens to people (read congress leaders etc.) knows the importance of collision (taking people along as in UP and Bihar) and does not live in myth or shadow of Congress being the Grand Old Party of India.He learns from mistakes faster and ready to play second fiddle if the situation demands so,thus making him more opportunistic of winning the elections in the years ahead.Rahul Gandhi though would do a lot better just working in silence.
Priyanka Gandhi definitely speaks better but she neither has the organisational skills or political acumen to be a successful politician and also still lives in the myth of Grand old party of India called Congress.
Though for either of them to be the Prime Minister of India they would definitely need to wait for the man of the moment called Narendra Modi to retire from active politics.
Also the voters are showing an interesting trend in UP,Bihar and Maharashtra muncipal polls of supporting development politics than freebies politics,though Kerala being an exception.
The article is nice....Especially I like the sentence that till modi is there there is no chance of winning for rahul gandhi.
