Congress Lok Sabha leader Mallikarjun Kharge feels senior leaders like Sheila Dikshit and Amarinder Singh should not play into the hands of party rivals by creating a divide between Sonia Gandhi and her son. Kharge defended Rahul Gandhi in an interview to Sowmya Aji. Excerpts:This is like asking a man, ‘do you like the left eye or the right eye better’. A person needs both eyes. Both of them have to work for us. One of them is the party president, the other is vice-president. There is no need for us to create an unnecessary controversy on their posts. Let them do their work, there is no need to discuss this.Let us see what the party decides. Sonia and Rahul will sit with the Congress Working Committee and take an appropriate decision at an appropriate time.Can you tell me if there is another Congress leader who can mobilise thousands of workers in all the states with just his/her name? We need a leader for whom people will voluntarily gather from Kanyakumari to Kashmir. People keep talking about the Gandhi family but they have never aspired for anything. They did not take the PM or any ministerial post. They are working for the party. Sonia brought Congress on track after it lost the 1996, 1998 and 1999 elections. They have a track record.He is also working for the party and doing what he can. I will give an example: Under Vajpayee and Advani, BJP got only two seats in 1984. Did that mean those leaders were not relevant for BJP? These things happen. When there is a war, sometimes we win, sometimes we lose. When we win, we are good, but just because we lose due to an adverse situation, it is wrong to talk like this. The results will be good in the future, you will see.
