Is Congress thinking and acting in three different ways at the same time? Are the top leaders working at corss purposes, undercutting one another? Is the problem at the top? Yes, say sources.
Sources say that there is no coordination between Sonia Gandhi, Priyanka Vadra and Rahul Gandhi. Consider this. When Sonia Gandhi made the grandiose announcement that the party would take care of the fares of the train travel for the migrant labourers, Rahul Gandhi did not even tweet his support. He did not do a zoom conference on this issue. Some party workers say that actually, he should have been in the railway stations to provide moral support to the migrant labourers. That would have made a very good photo opportunity. On the other hand, he goes all the way to the routes taken by the migrant labourers and interacts with them. This is tweeted by himself. Neither Sonia nor Priyanka retweet it. As for Priyanka Vadra works on her own and does not take any advice from either mom or brother. When she finds herself helpless in the face of the Yogi Adityanath onslaught, neither Sonia nor Rahul come to her rescue.
The problem, insiders say, is not with Sonia and her children. The problem is with their respective political advisors. While Ahmed Patel is advising Sonia, Karnataka strongman DK Sivakumara is advising Rahul. Priyanka Vadra is being advised by a young whizkid called Sndeep Singh. Each wants to get one up on the other one. There in lies the problem.
