10 key takeaways from Prashant Kishor’s presentation

– Congress is in constant decline after 1985

Of the four main causes of this decline, is the natural disadvantage of being a legacy incumbent

Second cause: Four periods of organised mass dissent, starting with the JP Movement, Mandal Movement, Ram Mandir Movement and of course, the rise of PM Modi.

Third cause: Failure to capitalise on legacy and achievement. Interestingly, this includes PV Narasimha Rao in the line of illustrious Congress prime minister such as Jawaharlal Nehru and Indira Gandhi.

Fourth cause: Structural weaknesses & lack of connect with the masses

– Jaded & aged leadership. No structured pan-India membership drive in last 25 years

– Complete Disconnect with the Grassroots: INC’s last mass public outreach campaign was Rajiv Gandhi’s Bharat Yatra in 1990 No pan-India protest or agitational campaign that has lasted for more than 24 hours since 2014

Congress ceased working as a democratic organisation: Between 1885 & 1998, 61 presidents with average tenure of 1.85 years; from 1998 till present, 2 party presidents in 23 years

– Reincarnation of Congress

– Create a new Congress that is the political platform of choice for the masses

– Protect legacy, values and core principles

– Liberate from inertia, mediocrity, and status quo

– Destroy sense of entitlement, lack of accountability & sycophancy

– Conceal the immutable baggage of nepotism and corruption

– Connect with the masses, become their voice and capture their aspirations.

In a peculiar incident in Rajasthan, a monkey fled away with the evidence collected by the police in a murder case. The stolen evidence included the murder weapon (a blood-stained knife).

The incident came to light when the police appeared before the court and they had to provide the evidence in the hearing.

The hearing was about the crime which took place in September 2016, in which a person named Shashikant Sharma died at a primary health center under Chandwaji police station. After the body was found, the deceased’s relatives blocked the Jaipur-Delhi highway, demanding an inquiry into the matter.

Following the investigation, the police had arrested Rahul Kandera and Mohanlal Kandera, residents of Chandwaji in relation to the murder. But, when the time came to produce the evidence related to the case, it was found that the police had no evidence with them because a monkey had stolen it from them.

In the court, the police said that the knife, which was the primary evidence, was also taken by the monkey. The cops informed that the evidence of the case was kept in a bag, which was being taken to the court.

The evidence bag contained the knife and 15 other important evidences. However, due to the lack of space in the malkhana, a bag full of evidence was kept under a tree, which led to the incident.
