The
grand old party of India has accepted defeat even before the battle has
started. When even the local parties have published their manifestos and
started off with their campaigns in pomp, Congress is yet to catch up the heat.
What
has happened to Congress? Where is that spirit that even a child has before a
competition? And this is no small competition where you’d get a one rupee
toffee, but it’s election; it’s politics. And in politics the wind can change
direction anytime, the tide will turn anytime but you need to at least have
your sails on to adjust to it!
Congress
has a lack of leadership, agreed but this is not about leadership. This is
going beyond that and deep within. There is a general lack of spirit in Congress
workers; a lack of faith in the cause, in fact Congress is right now lacking a
cause. What it needs right now is a cause, an ideology to boast off. BJP has an
idol, in the form of Modi, and Congress needs an ideology that could attract
masses, that could get people believing, that could get people working.
Right
now, Congress has neither the idol nor ideology. Unless it has at least one of
them, preferably the latter, no amount of advertisements, no leader can bring
the glorious past again for Congress.
