congress: Too much bending injurious: Sunil Jakhar’s tip for Sonia Gandhi

When Sonia Gandhi was trying to demonstrate that she was ‘reaching’ to engage change-seekers in the conversation on their complaints about the condition of the Congress, she received a public call of caution against it from a party leader. Message received.

Former Punjab PCC chief Sunil Jakhar tweeted: “Including dissenters too much will not only undermine authority, but encourage more dissent while at the same time discouraging the cadre.” He did not mention any names, but Congress circles did not remember his post or the intended address of the gallery he was trying to please. He attached a copy of a newspaper clipping of Sonia Gandhi meeting some of the change seekers on Tuesday. However, one of those seeking change in the Congress quipped: “He seems to be enjoying the dual role of spoiler-cum-loyalist. During the Punjab elections, he called for leadership with daily public swipes. Queued up the pitch and fled it. After the Punjab Congress bombing, he is playing the role of a concerned loyalist in front of the same leadership. Lage Raho Munna Bhai.”
