Congress workers demand bringing in Priyanka Vadra


New Delhi, Feb 10 (IANS): As the Congress headed for a rout in Delhi assembly polls, 'Bring Priyanka' slogans were once again raised outside the the party headquarters here Tuesday.

A group of party workers were seen demanding Congress President Sonia Gandhi's daughter Priyanka Vadra be brought into active politics.

Scores of protesters holding banners saying "Priynakna Lao Congress Bachao" (Bring Priyanka, save Congress) were seen outside the party office.

The group was led by party worker Jagdish Sharma.

This was not the first time that a demand for bringing Priyanka Vadra has been raised in the party. A similar protest was witnessed after the results of Lok Sabha elections and after the defeat of Congress in the Haryana and Maharashtra assembly polls.

    Congressmen should not be dependent on individuals for their career growth. Instead they should provide a corruption free, honest, upright, dedicated government which meets the aspirations of the common man. Blame game has ruined the congress. When issues of corruption surface action is expected from the leadership even seeking fresh elections by disolving the assembly/Parliament instead of proving a point that despite all allegations they can rule for 5 years. Such an attitude has cost the congress dearly. Weed out the corrupt in the party and inject fresh blood. It is a difficult process, nevertheless the cry of the hour not just for the Congress but every political party. Otherwise the restless youth who constitute 50% of the population of India will turn tables for the seasoned politicians and political parties.

    first and foremost is dissolve the word 'Congress'. Congress party was formed for the objective of getting Independence from British. Mahatma Gandhijee has dissolved the party immediately after getting its objective, but Nehruji kept congress for his and families personal gain !
    if so called Congress wish to build up party to compete with BJP and AAP, then need to build local level cadres and local leaders, state leaders, national leaders by get rid off old faces !

    The vote share in delhi:


    AAP = 54.3%
    BJP = 32.2%,
    Cong = 9.7%
    BSP = 1.3%

    its congress voteshare has eroded and bjp's voteshare is intact like last time.
    so bjp has full cjance of bounceback and it also tells that people have faith
    in bjp but they have taught them a lesson what will happen if they ignore
    poor and lower middle class concerns.

    If Prianka has to come, she has to divorce Robert, which is impossible. So the conclusion is Priyanka will never come to Congress. So U.P.A is finished from the scratch.

    I think, Congress should take Shazia Ilmi and Kiran Bedi who will be apt support to Rahul Baba and may complement each other very well!
    People like Rahul Bab, Digvijay Singh, Shazia Ilmi and Kiran Bedi should not be in politics…, rather they may be good for Comedy Show!
    Few weeks or months back both Shazia Ilmi and Kiran Bedi were venting fire against BJP and now one is PM Candidate and the other is an Open Mouth for the same BJP!

    Best thing congressmen to do is, in remaining part of their life, go for a retreat, repent for past mistakes.
    Unite all secular parties adhering to constitution.
    After uniting all, apply for AAP membership under A.K.
    If they accepts fine, then they are eligible, otherwise take retirement.
    Give scope to new generation. You time is over.

    It is true that bringing Rahul Gandhi to Centre Stage was damaging to Congress.
    But bringing Priyanka Wadhra will be suicidal. Already Congress is in ICU. If Priyanka is brought in, then voters will shift Congress from ICU to Morgue .

    No surprise, after last LS poor performance, Congress defeat was predicted & also 90 percent of AAP votes are wrenched from Congress vote bank. Congress too didn't try much, as they were aware of the results.

    But, BJP !!!

    Even after putting full force & using all its cabinet Ministers, Sangh Parivar outfits in campaign against KejriWALL, Nominating 'SUPER COP' as CM candidate, Spending crores on campaign, using Obama name.... this situation ???

    May be Delliwaale didn't digest
    - FEKU's 'Dangerous Silence',
    - Daku's secret reveal "Which 15 lacs? Kisiko kuch nahin milega"!
    - BEDI's cry & mobile video (fake), showing AAP offering bribe to woo BJP voters.
    - BJP's 'Vision 2050', a Ullu Banaving project!

    It is time congress party finds a leader other than Gandhi's. There are so many young and efficient members in congress party. I think gandhis' should now take back seat to save Congres.
    One thing Delhi election has shown that Modi is not unbeatable. I wrote here after burning of Delhi church that it is beginning of end of Modi and his party and it has been proved correct as it happened in Karnataka . A lesson to all don't attack any place of worship belonging to any religion.

Now they are planning to make Rahul adopt Rehaan Vadra, so that he will use Rehaan gandhi!.. I am not kidding.. you will realise when it happens!

    and more over, mahajan, bedi, swaraj, alva or chaudhary doesnt guarantee them PM position by default on their surname! a GANDHI- does and that is scarier.. but anyways, now I am not bothered much, a COMMONER like Kejriwal, Modi, Khattar, phadnavees, chauhan's are coming up and winning... so, I cant be a sore loser on values!
