Gandhi scion and general secretary of the grand old Congress party Priyanka Gandhi Vadra was in Uttar Pradesh the other day to launch the youth manifesto ahead of the general elections.
During the interaction with the press Priyanka Gandhi hinted at her being the Chief Ministers face of the party for the forthcoming polls.
A popular leader to turn the Chief Minister is not shocking. But what is shocking to the political observers is the roots of Priyanka Gandhi.
She comes from one of the biggest political dynasties in the countries that had given several leaders who held the Prime Minister posts.
Barring a few leaders like P V Narasimha Rao Deve Gowda and IK Gujral Congress produced several Prime Ministers that too from the Gandhi family.
The list of Prime Ministers coming from the Gandhi family is so long. Starting with Jawaharlal Nehru Indira Gandhi Rajiv Gandhi and Sonia Gandhi have served the nation as the Prime Ministers of the nation.
Sonia Gandhi even scripted history by becoming the second lady Prime Minister of the country during her stint after Indira Gandhi. Sonia Gandhi was in the Prime Ministers office between 29 March 2010 and 25 May 2014.
The trend of Gandhi scions serving as the Prime Ministers got a break when the saffron party Bharatiya Janata PartyBJP won the elections two consecutive times and made it to power at the central level.
During the elections the former Chief Minister of Gujarat Narendra Modi was projected as the Prime Minister's face by the BJP.
Having won the elections Narendra Modi became the Prime Minister of India for two consecutive terms the highest for any non-Gandhi leader.
All these issues came up for discussion with Priyanka Gandhi hinting at her being the Chief Ministers face in the forthcoming general elections in the land of gods Uttar Pradesh
As when the elections in Uttar Pradesh are expected to be high on intensity one wonders why Priyanka Gandhi hinted at the Chief Ministers candidature. Having very few chances of winning the Uttar Pradesh general elections and making it to power might be a reason for this.
