The reasons are:- 1. Price rise. 2. Arrogancy of Leaders. 3. Regional Leaders lost respect because of their extra loyalty to a family. 4.Loss of mass contact. 5. Anti poor and anti-labour policies. 6. Submission to US pressure at the cost of national interest.

It is common man's understanding that regional leaders with qualities are sidelined by high command of Congress to keep the party under a showpiece.

If they don't do that, how will they create the aura of Indira, Rajiv, Sonia, Rahul, Sonia's Daughter, Sonia's grand daugher (remember how PM exchanged namasker with that kid).
That rot started by Indira Gandhi when he threw out Atulya Ghosh, Kamraj etc etc.
Its too late for course correction. Cong is destined to be wiped out in another decade of so.
We all now know how cunning the Sonia Bahu has turned out to be. She will leave the Saas miles behind. We need to be careful and watchful, lest she declares Emergency for controlling inflation, incumbency factors, poverty and unemployment. Mind you for handling terrorism, Quattrochi, etc. she may suggest that no laws are required and all the existing laws are annuled. Even normally Manmohan, Pranab, Chidambaram, Shivraj and gang are in her pocket. When she talks about emergency these people will not let her feet go.
Same thing repeated again.,when paralysed congress defeated BJP in cetere pole. now paralysed opposition defeated Congress. In my view main cause of congress defeate are

I agree. Main reason is that the Govt headed by Manmohan Singh is totally isolated from the pulse of the common people and doing the same mistake that BJP did with their India Shining campaign. I would blame PM and FM as the main reasons for the party's defeat. High time Sonia starts weilding her stick with the Central Govt. as only she understands the pulse of the Aam Admi and if she dosen't take corrective action soon, this will keep going on and eventually lead to the defeat in 2009 elections.
So, Mr Singhvi, do you want to reanalyze results of last general elections? Did BJP loose power because of anti-incumbency? But all sycophants like you were shouting from roof top that Congress win was because of Sonia Gandhi. Was that analysis incorrect?

Good answer Vaibhav, why they take time to analyze the elections i dont know. The reason is known to all the Indians beacuse of their poor vote bank politics..

Hi Vaibhab - Hope you are not waiting for an answer from Mr. Singhvi. Firstly, he cannot reply. Secondly, also he cannot reply - unless he takes permission from Sonia Italiano.
It is the same story everytime a party looses and the other comes back, same analysis, same anti-incumbency factor etc etc. Party in power very well know that not everything is bright in golden PUNJAB. Agriculture, the beiggest asset and pride of the state has been on speedy decline, Of all things, the proud and entreprising and confident punjabi farmer decides to commit suicide never heard before. Have we found causes and the answers, Over the years, Have we not gone farther from the masses and their problems with a royal elite on the chair and flaunting wealth sorrounded by bootlickers? Let's accept our guilt and allow the new incumbent to take the reins for the common well being
RE:Singhvi like Dravid
by gautam dasgupta on Feb 27, 2007 09:09 PM Permalink
You are absolutely right.Perhaps Dravid learnt this dialogue from the INC.Congress has always made mistake starting from the pre-independence days when it accepted partition but didnot accept the exchange of population.Its economic policies were disastrousa for the country.The person who reversed the trend namely PV Narseema Rao was not given his place of honour.This party only knows to appease one family.In fact the party should change the constitution and go in for monarchy instead of taking a facede of democracy.In that case at least the king or queen will be blamed if anything goes wrong.Now if there is any problem the blame is given to everyone other than the particular family, but if anything good happens the credit goes to that family.

2050?what do you mean here?U want to say that we will see Rahul and then Priyanka's kids as PM in next 43 ys?Too much man...
This word is the favourite excuse of the losing pasrty. Why do not they accept that they governed badly? Why does BJP keep getting elected in Gujarat? Why did Sheila Dixit win in Delhi the second time? Why did TDP won twice in succession? Why does CPM keep on winning in West Bengal? Does not antiincumbancy affect them?
The congress is going downhill. They will have to abandon their divide and rule policy.They will have to decide that the country does not need two prime ministers at a time.They will have to get rid of the Sycophants.It is the congresswallas themselves who will ultimately bring down the party.The writing is on the wall. Even now they are supported by people whose idiology and loyalities are with some other country.

friend ! it seems that u r still living in 19th century adhering to ur own subjective and myopic view when it comes to national originity of a leader. u need not fret about the decline of a party. our national interest must be supreme.
