| Is Rahul Gandhi anti-Cong or pro-Cong? asks Azad | | |
Early Times Report
Jammu, Apr 8: Intensifying his tirade against incumbent leadership of the Congress at the national level, former Chief Minister and chief of the Democratic Progressive Azad Party (DPAP) Ghulam Nabi Azad questioned Rahul Gandhi’s intention to strengthen the Congress party.
“I failed to understand whether Rahul Gandhi is anti-Congress or pro-Congress”, Azad said in an interview with a news channel.
“The way Rahul Gandhi is destroying the party through the autocratic style of function, I questioned his intention to strengthen the Congress party.
Azad alleged that Rahul Gandhi is indirectly helping BJP by forcing all senior leaders to leave the party. “Rahul Gandhi is the most intolerant leader in the country. It is all due to intolerance that respectable and mass-based leaders have no option but to say goodbye to the Congress”, he said.
Ghulam Nabi Azad was mentioning the episode of how Rahul Gandhi humiliated and ill-treated party stalwart Himata Biswas Sarma, who is presently BJP chief minister in Assam.
“Himata Biswas Sarma was the face of the party in the entire North East. He was rather an asset for the highly sensitive area”, Azad said and alleged that it was all due to the arrogant attitude of Rahul Gandhi that he was forced to join the BJP and presently he is Chief Minister of Assam.
“Majority of the Congress MLAs were with Himata Biswas Sarma. Even the then Congress president Sonia Gandhi was interested to make Sarma as Chief Minister of Assam but Rahul Gandhi arrogantly ignored the majority view and insulted Sarma”, he said.
Azad said that it was all due to the style of functioning of Rahul Gandhi that mass base leaders have left the party and only clerks-turned-politicians are running all affairs of the party.
“Those who were earlier clerks in the party, some PAs of party leaders, some OSDs of ministers are policymakers in the Congress party and they are advisory to the leadership. |
