Lack of Genuine Achievement

The most common question asked about Rahul Gandhi these days is-"What has he done for the country?" He might boast of trips to villages, staying in dalit homes, and travelling in standard class transport etc. The times have changed and these are being increasingly seen as gimmicks to fool people. The lack of sincerity in these trips has begun to seep into the minds of citizens. A genuine personal achievement still eludes Gandhi. Leaving aside national contributions, Rahul has not been able to achieve much in the political sphere as well. The recent examples are his failure to prevent the party's slide in Bihar and Tamil Nadu assembly elections.His links to the powerful Gandhi dynasty and age factor are the only reasons that brought him limelight.
