Prashant Kishor Interview | Prashant Kishor On What Ails Congress: 'ignorance, Laziness, Arrogance'

Prashant Kishor Exclusive Interview | 'BJP Is Over Dependent On PM Modi', Says Prashant Kishore
Political strategist Prashant Kishor said "ignorance, laziness, arrogance" were ailing the Congress from achieving electoral success and advised Rahul Gandhi to take a break from politics.
Kishore, in an exclusive conversation with India Today, said that the grand old party should get rid of and move beyond the 'status quo' as far as the party leadership is concerned.
Upon being asked about the possible ways for improvement in Congress's future prospects in Indian politics, Prashant Kishor replied "Improvement only comes after one realises that they lack something and need to improve."#prashnatkishor #loksabhaelection #loksabhelection2024 #rahulkanwal #rahulkanwallive #prashnatkishoron loksabhapolls
