UDAIPUR: Expressing concern over the divisive politics of RSS-BJP, Rahul Gandhi on Sunday said Congress is the only party which can lead the battle to defeat these communal forces, while asserting that regional parties cannot perform this onerous political task.
Assuring party workers of Congress's revival, party chief Sonia Gandhi said, "We will overcome... That is our Nav Sankalp (new resolution). Congress will have a new uday (dawn)." Rahul said the regional parties are built around different aspects but not an ideology, while Congress is a party with a centralized ideology, adding that BJP too is aware of the threat the grand old party poses.
"The regional parties cannot fight this battle because this is an ideological fight. BJP talks about Congress, its leaders, its workers, but not about any regional party. That is because they know that regional parties have a place, but they cannot defeat BJP because they don't have an ideology. We have a centralised approach," Rahul told delegates in his valedictory speech at the 'Chintan Shivir' being held in Udaipur, Rajasthan.
