Ashok Gehlot Comes To Gandhi Family Support After Kapil Sibal’s “Leadership In Cuckoo Land” Comment
Bhubaneswar: On a day when veteran Congress leader Kapil Sibal said Gandhi family should step aside and give a chance to others to lead the party after the debacle in the just concluded Assembly elections in 5 states, Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot launched a scathing attack on Sibal.
Commenting on Sibal, a prominent lawyer of the country, Gehlot, a die-hard Gandhi family loyalist, said the former has forgotten the opportunities offered by the Congress to him to build his career.
Earlier in the day, Sibal, who is a member of the Congress’ G-23 faction – a group of 23 leaders who have been demanding change in the party leadership – said the party leadership was living in “cuckoo land” if it is not aware of the reasons for the party’s decline even after eight years.
His response came after the CWC turned down the offer of party president Sonia Gandhi along with Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra to step down on Sunday following the party’s debacle in the Assembly elections in 5 states.
