Rahul Gandhi today targets leaders to excite his party workers. When he went to Gujarat a few months ago, he told the story of 2 types of horses there. And taunting the leaders of his party, he said that the baraat horses are being sent to the race in the party. He promised to exclude such leaders in Gujarat from the party. Now Rahul Gandhi has reached Madhya Pradesh and now he has told the story of three types of horses. The race horses, and the procession horses, have now come a lame horse. During the ‘Organization Creation campaign’ of Madhya Pradesh Congress in Bhopal on June 3, 2025, he said that lame horses have to retire. The aim of Rahul Gandhi is to implement discipline, responsibility on the basis of merit, and internal reforms in the party’s organization. Giving the example of horses, questioned the internal mobility of the Congress in both Madhya Pradesh and Gujarat states, the weaknesses of leadership, and the attitude of such horses (leaders) towards the BJP. However, everyone knows whether Rahul Gandhi can do it as much as he says. Let us see who is the lame horse of Congress Parta in Madhya Pradesh?
Who is the lame horse of Congress in Madhya Pradesh
Rahul Gandhi said in Bhopal that the race horse will go to the race, the procession of the procession in the procession, and the lame horse has to retire. If he causes trouble, then action will be taken.
The Congress’s consecutive defeat in Madhya Pradesh (66 seats in the 2023 assembly, zero in 2024 Lok Sabha) raised questions on senior leaders like Kamal Nath and Digvijay Singh. Kamal Nath’s son Nakulanath’s defeat in Chhindwara and his alleged meetings with BJP leaders increased the doubt. Similarly, the strategies of Digvijay Singh were also attributed to the defeat of 2023 and 2024.
Some people believe that Rahul has taunted the leaders working for the BJP, which was considered a gesture on Kamal Nath, especially after the defection of Jyotiraditya Scindia in 2020.
Rahul Gandhi’s ‘Organization Creation Campaign’ was focused on appointing 55 new district presidents and promoting young leaders. This statement was also a warning to retire the old, passive leaders.
BJP state president V.D. Sharma said in response, “How the discussion of horses came in the donkeys’ gathering? It was a strategy to highlight the internal weakness of the Congress.
What action was taken by Rahul Gandhi on procession horses in Gujarat
Rahul Gandhi, while addressing the Gujarat Congress workers in Ahmedabad on 8 March 2025 and in Modasa on 16 April 2025, described the race horse and the gap of the procession of the procession. He said that the Congress sends the horse of the race to the procession and the horse’s horse in the race. Some people have met BJP, they should be removed. The statement was part of the party’s weakness in Gujarat and the strategy of strengthening the organization for the 2027 assembly elections. Rahul Gandhi emphasized the need to evacuate at least 30 to 40 such people in Gujarat. However, no particular leader was named, and this statement focused on organizational reforms and strengthening the leadership at the district level.
Since Rahul Gandhi’s statement (March and April, 2025), there is no strong news in the Gujarat Congress to remove or expel a big leader. Strategies of leaders like Shakti Singh Gohil, Bharat Solanki, and Amit Chavda in Gujarat failed in the 2022 assembly elections (17 seats) and 2024 Lok Sabha elections (0 seats). It is believed that Rahul’s statement of horse horse was only for these leaders. But there is no news of removing them or disciplinary action on them.
Nothing will happen in Madhya Pradesh too, action is difficult on lame horses
In Madhya Pradesh, Rahul Gandhi said that the lame horse has to retire. If they create trouble, then action will be taken. According to journalists watching the Congress beat, Rahul Gandhi’s gesture was for leaders like Kamal Nath and Digvijay Singh. Due to whose strategies, the Congress was dead in the 2023 assembly elections (66 seats) and the 2024 Lok Sabha elections (0 seats).
The process of appointing 61 AICC supervisors and district presidents started under the ‘Organization Creation Abhiyan’ in Madhya Pradesh, but no action was taken against senior leaders like Kamal Nath or Digvijay. State Congress President Jeetu Patwari said that the list of new leadership is being prepared at the district and block level, but this process is slow. Actually, it is a truth that the factionalism of Kamal Nath and Digvijay Singh in Madhya Pradesh is a major obstacle in the strengthening of the Congress. Jyotiraditya Scindia’s defection in 2020 weakened the organization, and Kamal Nath’s defeat in Chhindwara reduced his influence. However, the organizational structure in Madhya Pradesh is better than Gujarat.
