Sonia Gandhi’s stern message that party leaders and cadres should stop infighting
and they must present a united face has yielded fruit in some states especially
in Kerala.
Blaming Pinarayi, when State Congress President Remesh Chennilthala said Acuthanandan
is a brave communist, rebutting it former KPCC President K Mauraleedharan came
strongly against Chennithala saying that veteran comrade is a coward. I mean the essence of
Sonia’s message was fully understood by the Kerala leaders and hence they
started mudslinging each other with added vigour.
Sonia Gandhi’s tough talk is bound to have some effect on poor party men
nevertheless it has no impact on hard core politicians like K Muraleedharan. Arrogance among leaders has become a common
posture in Kerala; still they win by-polls because of the damage done by Opposition party by brutal acts like killing
of former comrade by present comrades.
There is only just two years for the Lok Sabha elections. As the memory of an average voter is very poor comrade killing would be soon forgotten and people would vote against Congress if the infighting of the present sort persists.
