It was same with me. I was a blind suppoter of congress during my college days in mid80s. But after PV narsimha Raos death when congress did not allow his body into AICC office to enable public to show last respect, AND hurriedly they sent his body to Hyderabad instead of cremating his body at Delhi, it became clear to me that congress was, is and will be a family based party. other then that Shahbano case also proved that they treat muslims with extra care and use them as vote banks. The faster muslims realise this the better for them.
