The party conference of the Indian Congress was held in Hyderabad in January last year. The leaders and activists of various levels of the party participated in that conference. The successes, the failures and the future plan of the party were discussed in it. But one of the main attractions of that conference was Mr. Rahul Gandhi's presence. He was billed as the next president of the party. But when Mr. Gandhi came to deliver his speech, the scene was completely changed. He said in his speech, "I don't want any post of the party. I want to work for the poor people, I want to learn and this is the time of learning." Everybody was astonished and some shed tears hearing his speech. This is called like mother, like son. What generosity! What a sacrifice ! Can we imagine such a scenario in the context of our country?Yes, Mr. Rahul has proved himself to be a real patriot. It we look at our political leaders, what do we see? Everybody knows very well about them. So we do not have to repeat the facts about the politicians. But the question is can't we follow the example set by Mr. Rahul Gandhi?
