Punjab Congress battle isn’t about Navjot Sidhu or Amarinder Singh. It’s about Gandhis https://youtu.be/SsKnB93z0PI?t=74 Jul 21, 2021 The Gandhi siblings have now decided to go for the kill — re-establish unquestioned supremacy. Our Political Editor D.K. Singh explains in #Politcally Correct.
The Gandhi siblings are prepared for a showdown now, knowing well that the organisational set-up – which enabled them to have their point persons on key positions — and Congresspersons’ belief in TINA (there is no alternative) factor makes their ouster next to impossible. Even if a section of Congress leaders find the party’s first family an electoral liability, the latter remains well-ensconced.
Secure in this knowledge, the Gandhi siblings have now decided to go for the kill — re-establish unquestioned supremacy. The detractors or naysayers must fall in line or leave. An Amarinder Singh in Punjab, an Ashok Gehlot in Rajasthan, a Bhupinder Singh Hooda in Haryana, an Oommen Chandy in Kerala, a Siddaramaiah in Karnataka, a Ghulam Nabi Azad in Jammu and Kashmir, a Digvijaya Singh in Madhya Pradesh, or a Kapil Sibal in Delhi can’t decide what’s good or bad for the party. The Gandhis are the Congress and its fate must remain tied to them. If someone doesn’t agree, the message for them is unequivocal: My way or highway.
