Rahul Gandhi is expected to be an asset to Congress Party for upcoming elections in 2013. With failure in all the spheres and several scams getting unearthed, Congress almost lost the chances of coming to power for the third time on a trot. They are solely depending on ‘Gandhi’ brand to steer to safety. But Rahul Gandhi is slowly proving as bane than boon to the party. Rahul gave his first media interview to Arnab Goswami. Rahul Gandhi and Congress party image took a severe beating with that interview with Rahul’s answers being very immature and inappropriate.
Rahul also made some controversial remarks about Sikh riots following Indira Gandhi’s death. He admitted that some Congress party were involved in it. Sikh community was agitated with this remarks and are protesting against Congress. This is expected to have an effect in poll prospects of Congress in states like Punjab, Harayana, Delhi. Lets see what Congress now does to damage control.
