Ghulam Nabi Azad Blames Rahul Gandhi For His Exit From The Party

Former Congress leader Ghulam Nabi Azad has blamed Rahul Gandhi for his departure from the party, saying that staying in the party requires one to be "spineless".

Azad also criticised the UPA II regime, stating that when the government brought an ordinance in 2013 to negate a Supreme Court order disqualifying convicted MPs and MLAs, then-prime minister Manmohan Singh should not have given in to Rahul's objection.
