The induction of Priyanka Gandhi into the Congress leadership is a belated but an obvious move by the party that is willing to move heaven and earth to regain power.
But the BJP's criticism of Priyanka's appointment only reflects the nervousness in the ruling party. The first criticism is on the question of yet another dynast coming to politics. But BJP will have the credibility to mount such a criticism, however valid it is, only if it estranges allies like Akali Dal, Shiva Sena, Apna Dal, which are no different from Congress as far as dynastic politics are concerned.
The NDA had and continues to have in its fold many parties that thrive on dynastic succession. The saffron party shared power with PDP in Jammu and Kashmir, and TDP in Andhra Pradesh, which have already put in place the process of political succession. The BJP's possible allies like TRS, YSR Congress, BJD are also part of the same club of dynastic politics. If the party has such a pathological aversion to dynastic politics, it cannot survive in coalition era. Will the BJP preach same lessons to its allies?
