In dynastic politics, a victory goes only into the account of the supreme leader or his heir apparent. Failure, however, is a collective responsibility. In other words, every attempt would be made to insulate the dynasty from the failures.
Take the case of the recent reverses that the TRS suffered in the Lok Sabha polls. The TRS proudly proclaimed that it will bag all the 16 Lok Sabha seats. 'Saaru... Kaaru... Padaharu' (Sir (KCR), Car (TRS symbol) and Padaharu (16 seats) was the TRS slogan. But, when the votes were finally counted, the TRS had just nine seats, including two seats that were won by wafer thin margin. The BJP and the Congress left the TRS badly bruised. Interestingly, every attempt was made to absolve KTR of the responsibility for the failure. Even KTR said failure was a collective responsibility.
Now, in the latest MLC election results, the TRS had won all the three seats. See who owns up the whole success? KTR and none else. Everyone is now praising KCR for organising, mobilising the voters, training them on voting and ensuring the TRS victory.. Failure is a collective responsibility, but the credit for success is only KTRs.
We have a piece of advice for KCR!! Congress did the same thing for years. Every victory went into Gandhi-Nehru family account and every failure was thrust on the whole party. See where the Congress party is. If you do not want the same fate to befall on the TRS, please own up responsibility for the failures too.
