"PM Not Always Wrong": Ex-Congress Leader Ashwani Kumar on Party's Decline

• Former Congress leader Ashwani Kumar stated that an effective opposition requires Congress, but the party has "lost ground" and must introspect.
• Kumar, at his book launch, urged Congress to look inward for weaknesses rather than blaming rivals.
• He also noted that it's incorrect to assume the current government or Prime Minister "does everything wrong."
• Kumar praised Rahul Gandhi's idealism but highlighted issues with Congress's messaging.
• He expressed high personal respect for Sonia Gandhi's civility and dignity in public life.

Why It Matters: It underscores the critical need for Congress to revive for India's democratic health.
