If repetition be the mother of learning… then Rahul is a fast learner….he has come a long way from the time when we complained that he was  the least heard politician, a position that  is now held by Manmohan Singh. No more  is he a speaker who had been thrust on the stage to mouth lines he had not rehearsed well. Today he’s a confident stage performer who smiles, speaks with confidence and pauses at the right points too ..one little hitch .. he repeats himself far too often.

At two election rallies in Rajasthan on October  the 23^rd in Churu and Kherli (Alwar)—Rahul reminded the  people of his Daadi, Indira. Both the speeches, which were almost identical in terms of content and delivery, right down to the pauses and emotional effects.

At the same rally  October 23, 2013, Churu, Rajasthan talking about the building of raods Rahul said , “While BJP only talks about roads, the Cong led UPA has not only built three times more roads than them but has also given employment, food security and land rights…through laws on food security, MGNREGA & land acquisition”.

 This was a copy of what he said at a rally on October the 17th in Shahdol in MP. Here he said, “During five years of NDA rule, 2,650 km of roads were laid. But during the same period, with UPA at the helm, 9,750 km of roads were built”.

 At the same rally talking about the granting of talking about the distribution of tickets Rahul said,”The biggest lacunae in our country is in the political system. Be it of BJP, Congress, BSP and SP. This system is run by 300 to 400 people. I want that in coming years, the system should be run by lakhs of youths”.

 Talking on the same matter at a meeting on the 27^th of August in Delhi Rahul said,”When it comes to ticket distribution, only a few people decide tickets in all political parties. In Congress about 100, in BJP 60-70, SP three and BSP one… I want to change the…system…

Rahul is repeating himself far too often….why? Is this in order to sound consistent,  has he lost his speech writer to  the opposition, many a time now they sound like the erstwhile Congress or is he just content that he is saying something now… Either way someone tell Rahul Gandhi  repeating the same is a  mistake and does not make for good oratory.

Oh!! no one there to tell Rahul Baba , pity!.
