Opinion | Aaj Ki Baat October 9 episode: Why Congress leaders are unhappy over Rahul 'walking away'
India TV NewsSenior Congress leader Salman Khurshid on Wednesday in an interview to a news agency, made caustic remarks about the present state of the party. This remark comes at a time when party leader Rahul Gandhi is busy doing 'vipassana' meditation in Cambodia leaving the Congress party in the lurch, right in the midst of the crucial assembly polls in Maharashtra and Haryana. Similarly, on Dussehra day, when the Defence Minister Rajnath Singh performed 'shastra puja' in France during the hand over of the first Rafale plane to IAF, senior Congress leader Mallikarjun Kharge described it as a "tamasha". There appears to be either lack of coordination among senior Congress leaders or there is a state of disarray and confusion in the party leadership because of the absence of a strong High Command.
