India's Royal Jeopardy

Considering the spate of foolhardy statements by Rahul Gandhi over the years now, one can safely assume that he is on a rampage to compete against himself when it comes to stupidity. Perhaps his party high command bases his performance appraisal on an yearly quota of silly and immature statements made in public and a year on year hike on the number of such.

While being groomed for the PMO perhaps, he has been assigned on a blunder-fest fastrack. His success is perhaps measured as a function of the number of gravely-misinformed statements versus corresponding public outcries. As India's government sponsored royal family eagerly awaits the coronation of its heir apparent, we citizens are forced to bear a nail biting agony.

In keeping with the legacy of our political prince, perhaps one day Rahul Gandhi's autobiography will read - My Experiments with STUPIDITY.
