Answers
Explanation:
First Family - It is very difficult to find a political family which has produced 5–6 continuous generation of able leaders. Moti Lal Nehru, Jawahar Lal Nehuru, Indira Gandhi and Rajiv Gandhi (debatable) were great leaders. But it doesn’t mean that Rahul & Priyanka 7 thier children will be great leaders automatically.
No democracy in Party- Indira Gandhi started firing CMs and State Congress Chiefs like anything. Now a days, there is no place for strong regional leaders in state. If you are close to Gandhis, you will become CM or State Congress head.
No grass-root level contact- When was the last time, the party did something substantial for the Aam Janta ? Their leaders are out of realities.
Lack of Supreme Leader who can take on Modi. Rahul Gandhi doesn't have the charismata and dedication to fight Modi. He is often out of India at a time when politics is 24X7 job.
Scams and freebies- scams in the Manmohan Singh era took them closer to Congress death. Loan waiver , MNarega was like paracetamol for a Brain cancer patient.
Excessive dose of socialism- When our country got freedom from the clutches of British imperialism, our leaders were in the confusion that which path we should select for our country. There were several options like Free market-based economy(Sardar Patel and Rajaji idea of India), Socialism(Nehru’s idea of India) or village and swadeshi based(Gandhian Idea) economy for our leadership. Though Nehru had a stronghold India had chosen the path of socialism based economy. Our country was suffering from thousands of wounds on the body like Poverty, high mortality rate, malnutrition, low literacy rate and Failed industry.
