New Delhi: “Individual is not above party,” Congress president Sonia Gandhi was heard saying at a wedding, making amply clear her thinking on Andhra Pradesh.
In full hearing of several supporters of Jaganmohan Reddy, the son of late chief minister Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy, Gandhi said: “An individual is what he or she is because of the party. I am what I am because of the Congress party.”
She was speaking at the wedding of the son of G. Venkat Swamy, MP. It left little doubt that she had no time for the tactics of YSR’s son who is seeking to succeed him. Gandhi added for good measure that whatever YSR had become was because the party had reposed faith in him and made him chief minister.
