Dynastic politics

| | Secunderabad

Sir — Having been made the Congress vice president in 2013, the dynasty continues, and the 47-year-old Rahul Gandhi is not shying away from acknowledging the certitude given the fact that his mother Sonia Gandhi has been the longest serving Congress president for 19 years. After dodging taking  over as the Congress president for a good couple of years, Rahul Gandhi will finally assume the mantle in a few weeks from now.  If any leader in the party dares to put up a token fight by contesting against the yuvraj, it could get delayed by another fortnight or so. But unfortunately, none of the meek and readily acquiescent Congressmen are expected to do the improbable.
