Rahul Gandhi is leading a mega-alliance against Narendra Modi in the Indian election

ABC  

Over the last two years, he has walked the length and much of the breadth of India, been convicted for defamation, suspended from parliament, and now, had his party's funds frozen. The mighty BJP machinery, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, has been largely successful in labelling Rahul Gandhi "Pappu" and "Prince" throughout his political career. "Rahul Gandhi cannot claim to belong to any particular group, and these are major determinants of what makes a leader in Indian politics right now … it's a huge disadvantage for him today." "He is trying to restore democracy in the country for all Indians," he said at Rahul Gandhi's roadshow where he filed his nomination for the election. Rahul Gandhi and the INDIA bloc say this could be the country's last chance to "save democracy".
