Rahul Gandhi- Sane or Insane?


India, the world’s largest democracy is currently witnessing a political turmoil as the 2014 Lok Sabha elections stare at more than 1.2 billion of us right in the eye. Having the best PM who can chart us back to the growth path is turning out to be a dreadfully constrained option with every passing day. We have been witnessing a ‘RaGa v/s NaMo’ saga being repeatedly played on every news channel in the recent times. The comparison between both seems logical also as they are spearheading the two biggest Indian political parties, most likely either one of which will form the government with its allies in the upcoming elections.
However, lately it is not sinking in well to even imagine Rahul Gandhi leading our nation in the capacity of a Prime Minister, more so after seeing his first ever personal interview given to Times Now this week where Arnab Goswami just stripped him off intellectually. It is not that we have witnessed his lack of political & economical understanding for the first time but now the belief is reinforced that anyone & everyone can prove to be a better administrator than this scumbag. His intentions and his expressions are two different poles on the globe. The idiotic blabbering without the conviction in his eyes is clearly see-through-able. His body language and expressions were that of a surrendered lamb who is about to get pounced upon by a hungry tiger. Although, he tried many a times to deviate from the topic at hand but tiger Arnab Goswami dragged him back by his feet.
There were a series of upfront & specific questions asked by Arnab seeking Rahul Gandhi’s views on Narendra Modi calling him a ‘Shehzada’, role of Narendra Modi in Godhra riots viz a viz the role of congress party in 1984 anti-sikh riots, Subramanian Swamy’s alleging him of having a fraudulent M.Phil degree from Cambridge and Congress party not taking action on its corrupt ministers. He did not have the guts to make a confident eye contact with Arnab Goswami while desperately attempting to shy away from the questions. The ‘shehzada’ must have crammed up the super-cool sounding issues in India like bringing the young blood in the politics, empowering the women, and changing the system. I am still wondering as to which particular system he was referring to. The continuous beating around the bush by Vice-President of our ruling party goes to show that the system in the party itself lacks the much needed depth.      
The dynasty of Congress party has already eaten away trillions of Indian tax payers’ money via countless scams ranging from CWG to Coal gate to 2G to Adarsh society to Chopper gate etc. It is high time we all cast our vote and that too with the utmost seriousness. Narendra Modi has more than proved his mettle in the state of Gujarat and has clearly emerged as a triumphant administrator. A known devil can always be a better choice than an unknown devil. Many regional parties are also showing the signs of national aspirations; the AAP has emerged to be one of them. The buzz about a third front with the coalition of 10 regional parties is also doing the rounds these days. Every leader will shoot his lungs off in blowing his party’s trumpet as the national elections approach but one thing is sure that the Congress party will see its lowest ever performance with Rahul Gandhi leading or should I say misleading from the front. He has already been the face of a shameful defeat in the Vidhan Sabha elections of Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Chattisgarh and Delhi. In a way, it is best that he foolishly continues to pull his own party down.
Rahul Gandhi must become a commonsensical man before ripping himself off in striving hard to become a thick skinned politician.
