Rahul Gandhi's recent Mumbai visit has got the desired results for the family and the Congress party.He has proved that threats are not a way to have your say in a democracy.
But his (as well as his party's) silence during the last year's Raj Thakery's campaign against North-Indians was quite unfortunate.One is forced to think that his silence and the Assembly elections in Maharashtra were not mere coincidences.
His sudden support for SRK and his discovery of voice has been heart warming to many Liberals. But he probably gained voice only after RSS, one of the most hated organizations by liberals in India, came openly in the support of North Indians.
Was it (Rahul's Mumbai for all campaign) done to check liberals start appreciating RSS an inturn BJP, or was it done keeping the forthcoming Bihar assembly elections in mind?
