Mr. Gandhi’s Allahabad Rally- ‘thumps down’!






                                          As an Allahabadi from last few days I was seeing oodles of enthusiasm in the leaders and workers of Congress. The raison d'être was fitting too the Yuvraj of Congress choose his ancestral terra firma to instigate the election campaign of the state, popularly known as Mission 2012 by Political Pundits.


                                          From preceding month the citizens of the sangam city saw countless hoardings, banners presenting Mr. Gandhi’s rally on the occasion of birth anniversary of Pandit Nehru. One hoarding put in by Congress leader Baba Awasthi and Arun Pathak catch the lime light through out the nation. The message was- “Mother is ill, Cabinet is helpless, Rahul Ji lead the Government”. After the grand controversy it was removed.




Report Card of Rahul Gandhi’s Rally in Phulpur near Allahabad on 14th November 2011  

                                    When I personally heard that Rahul Gandhi would be addressing a big rally in Phulpur near Allahabad two pictures came into my eyes. First was Congress loosing in Bihar when Mr. Gandhi was leading from the frontage. And the second results of Uttar Pradesh in last central elections. So I was ardent to glimpse which way Mr. Gandhi might move. As always Media with chock-a-block covered the occasion much before Mr. Gandhi reached Phulpur.


Some minutes before Mr. Gandhi landed Bamruli Airport there were demonstration from the S. P, B.J.P, and even Supporters of Hazare which was according to the leaning. But when the helicopter landed at the rally centre in Phulpur some student leaders of S.P in mentorship of Abhishek Yadav come very close to the helicopter. They showed black flags, agitating against Mr. Gandhi regarding democracy in University of Allahabad. The popular picture at that point was Congress Minister Jitin Prasad and Congress leader Pramod Tiwari kicking them. The later explained that when police is useless thay have intervene. I was wondering where was Digvijay Singh at that movement. Mr. Singh today was clicking pictures of the rally from one photojournalist camera.


                           My  Rating- 2/10

                                       So after that entire huff finally Mr. Gandhi was on plinth to address. He knew that not only Uttar.Pradesh but all of the country was eavesdropping to him. In his address it was evident that he would attack Mayawati and Mayaraj. The dialogue which he spoke in each non-congress state, that we are sending money from the centre but it is being use by only BSP workers was at this point too. And attacking Mayawati and Mulayam was obvious too.

Out of the blue he acknowledged a dialogue which was bizarre. He spoke that due to ill governance the citizens of Uttar Pradesh have to beg in Maharastra and labor in Punjab. After this avowal the two pictures which was in my eye the foremost seems true.


                                                                 Mr. Gandhi how can you utter something like that. Mayaraj is not the best that is accepted but Central government is in your hands what are you performing there? Corruption, Price-rise, unemployment etc is due to your government not maya.  I personally believe this statement is equivalent to his cousin Varun Gandhi’s statement few years ago. If that was against one religion this is against one state. This is purely insult of the state. If Yuvraj of Congress suppose that populace of Uttar Pradesh are begging and laboring due to Mayaraj he is fairy land. His party has ruled the most in our nation.


Many news channels were reporting that this rally had portrayed that Mr. Gandhi is ready to lead the party from her mother. But from my view he has gone back from where he started. If Yuvraj has to lead he has to introspect. Many times I use to think that might be Mr. Gandhi is ready not only to lead Congress bur Country too. But now I am seeing my articulation was inaccurate. I would end by uttering that the initial gunshot for the state election by Mr. Gandhi was un-shot, he should do much of homework before coming to the rally next time.
