Rahul Gandhi still earns criticisms from the ruling party. His statements in the foreign country have caused all the din in the Parliament. Now, a recent notification regarding his disqualification from the Lok Sabha has further made him sad. A court in Surat convicted him in a 2019 criminal defamation case and awarded him two years’ imprisonment. Being a big blow to him and Congress at this critical hour. His disqualification from Lok Sabha can be turned into a political advantage amidst his supposedly rising popularity.
However, his very much political as well as personally drawn commitments were amply unmistakable on his uniquely styled Satyagraha. The workers of any other party cannot walk the distance he covered in his foot run. This is what he wishes to call a political achievement.
He said, those who love are not afraid and those who are afraid do not love. Very confidently he stressed his points during the much-talked Bharat Jodo Yatra. Now, in his first comments after disqualification, he said in his tweet that he was fighting for the voice of India. He was ready to pay any price.
But for all of this recognition, he is also famously used to facing much detested derivations too and forth. Critically adored politician Rahul Gandhi brought him back into the limelight through his long journey. He is supposed to be popping out within a string of misfires, from sentimental to ably situational circumstances as well as party politics to romantic adventures. The Yatra presented him with a new, or at least resurfaced finer side to the political sphere.
His stubborn streak was time and again realised but all seem to have lost lustre behind his disqualification. Oddly enough, even after the completion of his yatra, he remains a debatable matter. He stands as a political option, that is for some happens to be a disputable issue.
For all of his critical success, there was a distinct feeling that he does not relatively receive more recognition for his unexpected feat. The footwalk was arguably his political feat but the politician in him requires fresh efforts.
The possibility remains dim for him to gain more political dignity now, and the gains got out of his Yatra seem to have been lost in the void. His disqualification vociferously and straightforwardly bring a challenging moment for him.
