Indian National Congress

The problem with the Congress is very well explained. The issue is how to go about doing this? TO begin with, why doesnt the Congress hold genuine organizational elections for each of the party posts. What is this nonsense about High Command deciding vital positions?
Why cant the High Command demolish itself for the betterment of the party? Because there are just far too many vested interests. Why does the party that brought India freedom have to pander to religious and casteist emotions when it is this same organization that gave us Nehru, Patel, Azad and Gandhi.
Why is it scared of anything at all? It needs to revamp the organization and thats about it. Yet again, who will do it and who has the time?
Can Rahul really bear the heat and dust of India? Can he really travel across India like Gandhi did when he vitalized and made the Congress relevant to the masses? How does anyone feel that a Rahul so out of touch with ground realities can really do it, sitting in Delhi? Its a long road ahead but if someone can withstand the heat and dust, then India is there, waiting to welcome with open arms.
