Dynasties in Indian History
by sadanand kamath on Apr 16, 2007 03:15 PM

I think Rahul wants to add the name of Nehru-Gandhi dynasty to various dynasties that ruled India - Ghulams, Tuglaqs, Khiljis, Mughals in the Indian history !!!
Rahul's recents comments and that of other party leaders give us an impression that we are no longer a multi-party democracy but personality-oriented monarchy. Since India has given up monarchy and abolished pricely states, the same system is being followed by giving a colour of democracy through election. Why not then rename Parties to truely reflect the families which have been the absolute "monarch" of the party concerned. Like Gandhi Party for Indian National Congress, Mulayam Yadav Party for SP, Lalu Yadav Party for RJD, Paswan Party for LJD, Pawar Party for NCP, Gowda Party for JD(S) etc.
