The only way Congress could survive is if it let go of the Gandhis. Not just the people, but even their overall legacy.

Otherwise, it should just die and let a fresh alternative emerge.

@Memeghnad don’t you think it will take too long for a fresh alternative to gain national support?

Congress definitely needs fresh leaders. And maybe the Gandhis shouldn’t helm it.

But then why is BJP trying so hard to snuff out the Gandhi’s legacy?

@Memeghnad Quite naive to think congress would stay as congress. It would just fall apart and break into many smaller factions.
@Memeghnad it will die. But not in the way we imagine. The regional satraps will now own the party under a loose confederation. They will call the shots and the Central command will allow them space increasingly.
