3. Role Of Sonia Gandhi
Sonia Gandhi, as the longest serving President of Congress, has led the party to success in two consecutive general elections and that's why many Congress workers prefer Sonia to lead rather than passing over the baton to Rahul.
Congress party's massive defeat in 2014 Lok Sabha elections that was informally led by Rahul Gandhi has diminished his credibility in the party. His leadership quality has been questioned by senior leaders of his own party.
On the other hand, Narendra Modi has successfully lead the party from the front. He has proved himself as a winner right from his tenure as Gujarat Chief Minister. He won Gujarat elections for three consecutive times before winning 2014 Lok Sabha elections.
