Click to play videoNew Delhi: Congress General Secretary Rahul Gandhi put everything at stake in Uttar Pradesh as the first phase of campaigning ended on Monday. Addressing a press conference in Varanasi, Rahul said that UP was not an election, but a mission for him. Ruling out any alliance, he also said that he will stay on in UP irrespective of the result.
IBN18 Editor-in-Chief Rajdeep Sardesai's take on whether Rahul Gandhi has come of age as a politician:
At the age of 41, Rahul Gandhi cannot be the eternal Peter Pan. It is time that we discover who the real Rahul Gandhi is. The odd combative press conference is clearly not enough to uncover the real Rahul. He has promised that he is in UP for the long run and has run a strong election campaign.
We have just one simple question: would Rahul be tempted to become the UP chief minister if the Congress was in a position to form a government?
The road to Delhi, after all, has often run through Lucknow.
