A day after Ghulam Nabi Azad pinned the blame for the party's 2014 Lok Sabha poll debacle largely on Rahul Gandhi, Congress leader Sachin Pilot dubbed it on August 27 as "targeted personal vilification" of the former party chief and said it was wrong to hold one individual responsible for the electoral loss.
Mr. Pilot also said the timing of Mr. Azad's letter was "very unfortunate", when the party is preparing to take on the "misgovernance" of the BJP government and the former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister had not fulfilled his responsibility.
