Young prince Rahul Gandhi was in the south of France for his birthday in 2009. This was fine because after all those visit to dalit huts with no electricity he preferred to be in more glamorous climes. His party men and women did the requisite obeisance and celebrated by arranging feasts for dalits all over the UP in the name of the Prince. In Chennai Congress party members adoringly poured milk over large colored portraits of the prince to wish him happy birthday. This sort of nonsense used to go on before the Emergency when everyone fell over themselves in singing ‘Indira is India’ and building temples in her name. No matter how much the prince may say he wants to change his party to a more democratic rather than dynastic mode, it can never happen as long as he chooses abroad while minions in his party grovel in India celebrating with their noses in the mud. Let us see whether he publicly chastises such ridiculous behavior and punishes the people who arranged such programmes or pretends he does not know anything about it.
