Rahul Gandhi to return today?
New Delhi, Apr 15 (IBNS): Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi is likely to return from his two-month long sabbatical on Wednesday, reports said.
He went off on a long trip amid a huge political crisis of his party.
The Congress party had repeatedly defended Rahul's disappearance and claimed that the party vice president went on the leave in order to introspect.
Gandhi is expected to address a massive farmers' rally on Sunday against the government's proposed amendments to the land bill.
His leave has paved way for several criticisms on his leadership qualities.
Party senior leader Digvijaya Singh said he needs to be more active and that politics cannot be taken as a part time job.
Singh told CNN-IBN: "We lost the war of perception. Rahul didn't project himself the way Narendra Modi did. Rahul should have been more aggressive in Lok Sabha elections. He must speak everyday on the issues and speak to the media."
"Rahul now has to come out very strongly and go through the length and breadth of the country and connect with people on all big issues. Nothing is holding him back but he was probably not ready earlier or he didn't want to upstage the PM (former prime minister Manmohan Singh) but now I think the time has come to convey a message that he is leading from the front," he had added.
