Two charts that capture
Congress’s current crisis
By Roshan Kishore
Rahul Gandhi’s conviction in a criminal defamation case, his subsequent disqualification from
the Lok Sabha and a possible jail term and debarment from contesting elections for another six
years is one of the biggest crises which has faced the Congress, India’s oldest political party.
Here are two charts which show that this is only the latest in a series of problems that has
plagued the Congress.
