Congress needs a clean leader to survive
Thursday, February 13, 1997
The latest drubbing in polls that Congress suffered is indicative, if one is needed at all, of the serious disarray in its rank and file. If this 110 year old party is to survive for any meaningful contribution to India’s future, it will have to go through a drastic metamorphosis. The patchwork surgery of Sitaram Kesari has not cured the party of it deep malaise. Until and unless the party can produce and resurrect a clean leader who is dedicated to the country and not in the game for self-projection and self-enrichment, not given to royalist and dynastic ambitions and has clear vision and determination to give the country a progressive and people friendly governance, Congress has its days numbered.
