Anna Issue Handled Inappropriately: Cong MP

New Delhi, Aug 29: In a fallout of the poor handling the Anna Hazare agitation, one of the younger Congress MPs has said this may have been done deliberately to damage “visionary” Prime Minister Manmohan Singh or to prevent Rahul Gandhi from taking the country’s top post.

In a letter to Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, Praveen Singh Aron said the issue was dealt with “inappropriately” and sought a “thorough inquiry” within the party to ascertain whether it was done deliberately or was a mistake.

Aron has said that in the absence of Congress Chief Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi, “the persons responsible to decide matters could not see the widespread public support and socio-political aspects” of Hazare’s movement”.

He said the mishandling could have been a “deliberate attempt” to prevent Rahul Gandhi from becoming the Prime Minister or “damage our visionary and unquestionably honest Prime Minister (Manmohan Singh)”.
