India, June 7 -- Internal unease grows as Congress weighs changes before crucial state elections

Congress leaders are both troubled and bewildered by the political approach of the party's top leader, Rahul Gandhi. Despite facing repeated electoral defeats, Rahul shows no inclination to change his ways. While no one within the party is speaking out openly, a significant faction believes Rahul is on the wrong track-a path that could cause the party immense damage.

Discussions regarding leadership changes are now underway for states like Uttar Pradesh, Goa and Punjab, where elections are imminent. However, such decisions should have been made much earlier. Factionalism is making the implementation of these changes difficult.

Hasty decisio...
