      Never got with the political dynasty thing? What is exactly wrong with that? Like people vote for the leader, how does it matter if they are from political dynasty or not?

        Because political dynasties are like royalty, where what matters is keeping power within the family, not the skill or qualifications of a person to lead. When there is a dynasty, corruption is not far behind. These people inherit power as if they deserve it, and they are brought up by their politician parents to become politicians, not servants of the people. The goal is to continue holding power, not working for the people.

          Well rahul Gandhi is very well campaigning on road, doing yatras, etc. Its a dire time for opposition but still that man is fighting, sure he was awarded the position he is at but still he is fightin, trying to prove himself. One can get a chance by being privilege, to hold on to it you must be qualified enough.

            The man just figured this about the castes on the last leg of the campaign after all else failed? Seems he just threw ideas to the wall until one stuck. Not sure it shows lots of commitment to the idea, seems pretty last minute.

              He is fighting in name of caste for more than a year now, he lost MP, RJ and CG elections after that but still he is holding on to it, lets see what future holds.
