As Sibal criticises Gandhis, Cong’s LS whip asks: ‘Why he is speaking language of RSS/BJP’

“Why the RSS and BJP wants Nehru-Gandhis out of the leadership? Because without Gandhi’s leadership Congress will be become Janata party. It’s easy to kill Congress then it’s easy to destroy the idea of India (sic),” Tagore said on Twitter.

“Kapil Sibal knows it, but why he is speaking the language of RSS/BJP,” he asked.

Sibal has said that Gandhis should step aside and give some other leader a chance to lead the party. “Leadership is in cuckoo land? I want a ‘Sab ki Congress’. Some want a ‘Ghar ki Congress’,” Sibal told the Indian Express in an interview.

The remarks came after the Congress Working Committee met on Sunday, and after almost five hours of deliberations urged Sonia Gandhi to continue to lead and initiate changes required to strengthen the party.

The CWC also rejected Gandhi’s offer to make any and every sacrifice for the party, which was construed by some as an offer of Gandhi family to step aside and reposed faith in her leadership.

The Congress put out a video of all its former leaders from Mahatma Gandhi, Jawaharlal Nehru and Indira Gandhi, on its Twitter handle.

“We will fight on. We will overcome. We will continue to raise your voice,” the party said.
