Why Rahul Gandhi’s ‘Wish’, Which Came 24 Hours After Poll Results, May Not Be Haryana Congress Cadre’s Command

Rahul Gandhi’s absence on the day of the Haryana and Jammu and Kashmir poll results has sparked criticism from the BJP, who are portraying him as a non-serious leader. Gandhi was in Dubai on the day of the results and only posted his wishes 24 hours later. This absence has demoralized the Congress cadre, especially after the high of the Lok Sabha polls. Many feel that Gandhi’s absence on critical days like this only gives the BJP more ammunition to attack him and question his leadership.
