Rahul dug his own grave
If someone asked me to state one and only one single reason that led to Congress debacle
If someone asked me to state one and only one single reason that led to Congress debacle (The Hans India, May 26, 2019), my answer with full reasoning would be, "Rahul Gandhi's slogan - "Chowkidar Chor Hai, Chor Hai".
I used to wonder why there is'nt a single person, at least the elderly in the family, the elderly in the party, a real good friend, who could advise Rahul that this is not our Indian culture, even on the occasion of Holi, we do not utter such epitaphs.
There was more pain than anger to hear such slogan on TV channels with display of full body-language of mirth and celebration.
Prime Minister of a country is to be respected in public, whatever be your private opinion, I remember, Pandit Nehru used to call every Indian abroad an ambassador of this country.
How proud we were feeling then! Our culture and our seniors have always taught us 'criticise person's actions, not his person."
