LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Good luck, Rahul!
Sir — This refers to the report, “Finally, it’s Rahul” (November 21). With the Congress taking a bold decision to anoint Rahul Gandhi as the party president ahead of the crucial Gujarat Assembly election, it has gambled in putting him in the venerable league of Congress stalwarts such as Jawaharlal Nehru, Indira Gandhi, Rajiv Gandhi and Sonia Gandhi. Surprisingly, Rahul Gandhi seems to have turned a corner in the last few months. Ever since his address at Berkeley two months ago, he appears to have re-invented himself.
He has mastered the art of barking and biting on social media spaces, pitting himself headlong against Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Rahul Gandhi will now have to fill the shoes of his mother who has boasted of a brilliant track record in managing party affairs. Will he be able to play the mediator with the same finesse as her? Only time will tell.
