Will PM also have a disgraceful end?

Other than Nehru family members, one can’t expect any great honors in the Congress party, come they may be AICC Presidents or Prime Ministers. It has been proved with former AICC President Sitaram Kesari and former Prime Minister late PV Narasimha rao, who have disgraceful ends despite honestly serving the party for decades. Now, seems to be the turn of Prime Minister Dr.Manmohan Singh.

Often many leaders in the party and government keep reiterating that sooner or later the Prime Minister has to vacate his chair for Rahul Gandhi. They even make the PM to sing chorus with them offering his chair to Rahul Gandhi and he obliges their demand.

The New Year occasion has given them all an opportunity to demand Prime Minister Dr.Manmohan Singh for announcing his retirement so that Prince Rahul Gandhi to be declared as PM candidate of the party. Justifying their demand, they argue that since hardly two months’ time is left for him, it is not wise to give any assurances during his annual address to people on Friday. So, it would be wise for him announce his quit from PM race and at the same time declare Rahul Gandhi as his successor. Justifying their demand further, the Congress men argues that it is high time for Congress announce Rahul Gandhi as its Prime Minister candidate, because BJP is taking full advantage of announcing its candidate.

However, their arguments neither help Rahul Gandhi or the party, but very much damaging to both. So, the damage control teams of the party swings into action to assure Prime Minister will complete his full term and he need not to make any formal announcement about his retirement and offer his chair to Rahul Gandhi during his address to the people of the country on Friday. Actually, even these assurances are also nothing short to humiliation to any person, who cares for his self-respect.
