Internal differences voted us out of power in Rajasthan, says Congress president
JAIPUR: Congress president Sonia Gandhi on Monday said more than the anti-incumbency factor it was differences among partymen that led to the voting out of the Congress governments in the States from power. Instead of keeping party criticism within the organisation, Congressmen tended to discuss it in the open damaging the partys prospects in the elections, she said addressing a workers political training camp at Rajiv Nagar in Padampura, 30 kms from the Rajasthan capital.
What the Congress president told the 600-odd gathering of party functionaries from the Pradesh Congress Committee level to the bloc level perhaps applied to all Congress governments that faced defeat in the recent past. But it suited Rajasthan best where the party, which went to polls in 2003 with full confidence of returning to power, lost two-third of the seats it had held.
Being in power was not always the reason for losing elections. Our own people make critical comments on our own governments. The Congress is a big party. Criticism has to be kept within the organisation, Ms. Gandhi said in her 14-minute speech.
