Coming out in help of the Gandhis within the wake of senior Congress chief Kapil Sibal’s remarks that they need to step except for the management position and provides another particular person an opportunity to guide the celebration, former Union minister and Congress Working Committee member Salman Khurshid on Tuesday mentioned the celebration is dealing with a “crisis of ideas” and never disaster of management.
He mentioned the argument that deficiencies within the celebration’s efficiency was solely as a result of “we don’t have the right leader is not acceptable”.
“The crisis that we face today in the party and in the country… it is not a crisis of leadership. It is a crisis of ideas. The crisis of ideas cannot be taken up by pulling out flesh from our body. The crisis of ideas will be taken up by agreeing on an idea. What is the legacy idea of the Congress? Let us agree upon that and let each one of us ask ourselves. Have we lived up to the legacy idea of the Congress before we talk about… the leaders have not done this and have not done that,” he instructed The Indian Express.
Asked whether or not the management was not chargeable for not having the ability to current a brand new thought to the individuals, he mentioned, “I can’t tell you how much the leadership wants to tackle the crisis of ideas and we and I include myself… we sabotage it from within… because we have our own ideas. Somebody wants soft Hindutva, somebody wants socialism, somebody wants capitalism, somebody wants ‘don’t attack Modi’. So, how are we being fair to our leadership and I include myself in it… how are we being fair?”
Apparently referring to the demand of the G 23 leaders for elections in any respect ranges, together with to select CWC members, he mentioned, “The party was asked to hold an election and the party is holding an election.” “In truth, individuals who had been related to what Kapil Sibal was related to….the demand for accountability and elections… They didn’t even agree when elections had been prompt to be superior [at the CWC meeting], They mentioned the dates have been fastened and let the elections occur on that date…So unity in a time of disaster can be an essential advantage. Is that advantage being revered or not?”
Khurshid mentioned Sibal is “entitled to a point of view but we will not decide it on the basis of his point of view, eminent as he may be”.
Lashing out on the G 23 leaders, he mentioned, “Many of the people who are complaining today are not talking about what they have benefited from the system…”
