On one side was the (relatively) young guard led by Rahul Gandhi,\nJyotiraditya Scindia and Sachin Pilot amongst others \u2013 who looked at the party\nbeing built ground up. With local units being more empowered. On the other side\nwere the old guard \u2013 people who had consistently lost elections but for some\ninexplicable reason still calling the shots in the INC \u2013 people like Digvijay\nSingh, Ahmad Patel, Ghulam Nabi Azad \u2013 who believe in a more centralised high\ncommand. Last week the old guard won. Instead of reposing their trust in\nsomeone younger, and more able to drive the party and unite it, the party\ncalled on Sonia Gandhi to take on the mantle until the time a new leader could\nbe found. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"461\" data-attachment-id=\"7548\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/calamur.org\/gargi\/2020\/01\/02\/cnbc-tv18-article-no-lessons-learnt-the-old-guard-strikes-back-in-the-congress-party\/2018_9img10_sep_2018_pti9_10_2018_000017b-768x553\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/calamur.org\/gargi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/2018_9img10_Sep_2018_PTI9_10_2018_000017B-768x553.jpg?fit=768%2C553&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"768,553\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"2018_9img10_Sep_2018_PTI9_10_2018_000017B-768&amp;#215;553\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/calamur.org\/gargi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/2018_9img10_Sep_2018_PTI9_10_2018_000017B-768x553.jpg?fit=640%2C461&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/calamur.org\/gargi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/2018_9img10_Sep_2018_PTI9_10_2018_000017B-768x553.jpg?resize=640%2C461\" alt=\"Sonia Gandhi takes charge at the Indian National Congress\" class=\"wp-image-7548\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/calamur.org\/gargi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/2018_9img10_Sep_2018_PTI9_10_2018_000017B-768x553.jpg?resize=768%2C553&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/calamur.org\/gargi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/2018_9img10_Sep_2018_PTI9_10_2018_000017B-768x553.jpg?resize=300%2C216&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the aftermath of the general\nelections rout and the resignation of Rahul Gandhi, the INC has been in\ndisarray. It has seen its numbers dwindle, as young politicians with ambition\nseek greener pastures \u2013 and there is, right now, no pasture greener than\njoining the BJP.&nbsp; Priyanka Gandhi\u2019s name\npopped up a few times, before Priyanka made it very clear that she wasn\u2019t in contention.\n&nbsp;Scindia and Pilot both seemed in the\nrunning, but just as they lost out the Chief Ministership to the old guard in\nthe states that they won through meticulous planning \u2013 Madhya Pradesh and\nRajasthan \u2013 the duo\u2019s chances seem nixed by the political back roomers. The\nnames of Mukul Vasnik \u2013 who last won an election in 2009 \u2013 and Malikarjun\nKharge the last leader of the Congress Parliamentary Party was floated around. Finally,\nthe mantle fell to an ailing Sonia Gandhi to hold the party together as interim\npresident, while the search continues for a President. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In his resignation letter, while\ntaking accountability for the drubbing in the polls Rahul Gandhi wrote, &#8220;Rebuilding\nthe party requires hard decisions and numerous people will have to be made\naccountable for the failure of 2019. It would be unjust to hold others\naccountable but ignore my own responsibility as president of the party,&#8221;\nWhile he has gone, others responsible for the debacle have not. Those include\npeople responsible for ticket allocation. &nbsp;And, those are the same people manoeuvring and\nmanipulating to ensure that the Congress stays in opposition. Nothing\nexemplifies the chasm more than the divided voices within the INC on the\nabrogation of Article 370.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The INC is at the crossroads. It\ncan go back to business as usual. But, it needs to realise that the rules of\nthat business has changed completely by Mr Modi. While Narendra Modi is backed\nup by the powerful organisational outreach of the RSS, it is his personal\ncharisma that draws voters. What the RSS does is deliver the voter to the\nbooth. But, Mr Modi attracts them first. The Congress, in its hunt to fix the\ntop leadership has forgotten that a party runs on its grass roots members.&nbsp; And, the ability of these members to get\npeople to the election booth on the day, to vote for the party. It is this\ngrass roots that is decimated, and unless there is a clear vision to rebuild\nthe party ground up, the Congress is going to face more defections, and more\nlosses. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The backroom brigade of the Indian\nNational Congress has wrecked more harm on the party, that the BJP and the RSS\ncould ever do. They have made sure that an organisation\u2019s greatest resources \u2013\npeople \u2013 have had to move to other parties, to meet their aspirations. Defeat\nafter defeat, in the states and at the centre, has not told them that their\npolicy is wrong. That they are harping on the same issues that the electorate\nhas roundly rejected.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To be in contention for the next\nelections, the Congress has to take some radical steps. The starting point is\nparty wide primaries for all positions, starting at the booth level, and ending\nat the presidency. And to achieve that you need the kind of organisational\nenergy that the old guard cannot bring. Sonia Gandhi served her party well, in\nthe 90\u2019s. but this is not the 1990\u2019s,, the world has changed. It is up to the\nCongress&nbsp; to understand the nature of the\nchange<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This appeared in CNBC TV18 on the 14th of August The last few years have seen a tussle within the Indian National Congress on the way the party should move ahead.
