I love the statements from cong leaders/spokesperson after every debacle in elections, tragedy, terrorist attack, blunder etc. They show the glaring example of political bankrupsy. Now this gentleman is telling us that they lost due to anti-incumbency. But how does anti-incumbency generated? Obviously wrong policies at state and center level are the reason behind anti-incumbency. Anti-incumbency is not a desease which spreads during elections. Its a natural phenomena if yo dont satisfy the people's needs they throw you out.

Because they are hypocrites. They want to glorify a set of people for whome they can claim alliegence. Netaji kicked Congress and formed his own nationalist force. congress wanted everybody under their control. Same mentality prevails today and therefore they fail to maintain good terms with coalition partners.

I realize that you made this statement consciously. Netaji disagrred with the congress that got India independence, the congress of Mahatma Gandhi. And, if you can call Gandhi a hypocrite, I wonder who in the world is not at least two-faced.

Your realization is wrong. I never mentioned Gandhiji as hypocrite. I wrote about leadership of congress who wanted to enjoy power for generations and Gandhiji or Sardar are not among such leaders. They were selfless and they never wanted big positions in govt either for themselves or their future generations. The way Gandhiji's name is used to gain power by congress leadership then and now is ridiculous. Netaji never disgraced Gandhiji but he disagreed and he left the congress, nothing wrong in it. Gandhiji wanted to help British army in World war II and Netaji did not want to do that. Gandhiji was favoring Nehru rather than the wish of representatives. These led Netaji to leave congress.
