There is a paucity of talent in the party, at least if one goes by some of the names being suggested as a replacement. Shri Mallikarjun Kharge, a decent man, has lost from Karnataka, Shri Sushil Kumar Shinde from Maharashtra, two states where the Congress has been strong, even in 1977. CM Ashok Gehlot has not given a good account of himself. However, what will hurt the Congress at such a difficult time is the impression that what is playing out is a charade. Five years is a sufficiently long time for the party to rebuild itself. If the Gandhi family sends out an honest message that they are now performing a caretaker function, good people will emerge. 2. Dalits, Muslims, possibly Adivasis as well, are the natural constituency of the Congress. It should stand by them in moments of difficulty. Not be diffident or ambiguous. If it is not too much to ask for, the party might wish to update its economic orthodoxy, lay claim to market friendly reforms that boost growth and create employment.

At least once in a season, Bombay, a large part of its plumbing a hundred years old, just sort of keels over. However, one thinks of the depleted lakes being replenished by these torrential rains and it sort of evens out.
