I think he can revive the party if past history is any indicator towards that!!In the last Lok sabha elections, congress touched double digit mark of sending ten MP's to loksabha after a huge gap of 15 years since 1989.And this was to an extent attributed to Rahuls' campaign in UP.Eventhough the party is a deadwood in UP,it will certainly be a tall order of magnitude effort required to reverse the trend and if someone can do this,I think it is him since there is no other mass leader worth the name in UP congress
Let's wait and watch if Rahul's effort can bear fruit or it will further sink the party into a sea of red.

Hi Mr. Vijay Rawal, It was Rajive Gandhi who started go hand in hand with technology starting with computers then brought Sam Pitroda to change the telecom. And I am sure if he was not backed stabbed by the former finance minister Mr. V. P. Singh India would flying like China. Mr. Vijay Rawal before making some comments like this you should check the facts. It was the communist party against Rajive Gandhi introducing computer and likes in the country. Mathias. F. Cochin

Dear Mathias I agree with you that only Rajiv Gandhi started talking about computers and 21st century, but even congress do not recognize this fact. What is the credentials of Rahul Gandhi except the word Gandhi in his name. For last 5-6 years all congressman are talking about Rahul & Priyanka and for last 2 years from UP Rahul is a member of our renowned parliament and her mother for last 7 years. But what contribution Rahul Gandhi or her mother has made to the nation instead they always try to avoid any responsibility in the Government. There may be two reason either they feel ashamed to work under leadership of others like Manmohan Singh (it shows thier respect to Indian constitution and PM of India) or they dont have any theme to work upon and just want to enjoy the Royal status without taking any responsibility. I am resident of UP and can assure you that only the name of Rahul Gandhi will not work in UP (except for the crowd hired by local goons of congress) and to get the results he has to come with idea of growth of all section of society in UP. UPians are waiting for a good leader who can bring prosperity to the community but they will not just jump over Gandhi name.
