Bangalore: Senior party member Siddaramaiah said on Thursday that the Congress, led by Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi, will get back on its feet and become a force to be reckoned with in the country in the coming days.
There are still people in Karnataka who believe that Sonia and Rahul are good leaders. "We will win the next Assembly elections in the state, and we will give the victory to Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi," he told the crowd. Party workers should not be fooled by the lies of opposition parties and the plots of insiders, he said. Instead, they should work hard to strengthen the party, he said.
Those people who are questioning Sonia Gandhi's leadership forget that the Congress has won two Lok Sabha elections when she was in charge. He said that not only was the Congress in charge at the centre of the country, but it was also in charge of 15 states. It is sad that people who tried to get her into politics while she was grieving for her husband and focusing on the future of her kids are now questioning Sonia Gandhi's leadership.
Sonia Gandhi set a good example for the rest of the world when she gave up her job as Prime Minister after the Congress won in 2004. This sacrifice will always be thought of. The Congress may have lost some elections, but Sonia Gandhi will always be in the hearts of a lot of people who have been helped by the food security act, the MGNREGA, and the RTI. "No one will ever be able to take this away from the record," Siddaramaiah said.
