rahul gandhi

well rajiv gandhi may not have the experiance but he surely has the credibility . and to say that he has no experiance is untrue . over the last few years he has travelled the troughout the lenght and breadth of uttar pradesh and has spoken to all people including party workers, leaders and as well as the common man . i think he has been able to judge the pulse of the voters quite correctly .lets wait and see .

what if he doesnt have experience but had very clear idea about what to do and what not.

Usually the son of a known politican person gets a chance to run for an office even if they don't have any experience.

Rahul Gandhi is a member of the Nehru-Gandhi political family, the son of Sonia Gandhi, currently the President of the Indian National Congress, and Rajiv Gandhi, the former Prime Minister who was assassinated in 1991 by Sri Lankan Tamil Eelam militants from the LTTE. Rahul was 14 years old when his grandmother, Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, was assassinated by her security men. His great-grandfather, Jawaharlal Nehru, was India's first Prime Minister. His great-great-grandfather, Motilal Nehru, was a distinguished leader of the Indian independence movement. Education and career before politics Rahul Gandhi attended Modern School, New Delhi[4] and St Columba's School, also in New Delhi, before entering the The Doon School. The Doon School had been his father's alma mater.[5] Rahul Gandhi attended Doon from 1981-83 before being home-schooled for security reasons.[citation needed] His admission to St Stephen's College was controversial as he was believed to have been admitted on the basis of his abilities as a competitive pistol shooter, which was disputed.[citation needed] He left the school in 1990, after one year of education.[4]It is reported that Harvard alumni records list him as attending between 1990 and 1993 but not as completing a degree.[6] He transferred, reportedly due to security concerns following his father's murder, to Rollins College in Florida where he completed a B.A. in 1994[7]. During the parliamentary elections in 2004, Gandhi claimed that he had received an MPhil in Development Economics after attending Trinity College, Cambridge. Media enquiries report that he attended under the alias "Rahul Vinci").[8] He worked in London with the strategy consultancy firm Monitor Group, before returning to India in 2002 to start a software company. Political career In 2003, there was widespread media speculation about Gandhi's imminent entry into national politics, which he did not deny.Appearing with his mother at public events and Congress meetings, Gandhi also went to Pakistan on a goodwill visit to watch a historic cricket match between the two nations In May 2004, he stood for the Lok Sabha, the lower house of Parliament, from his father's constituency of Amethi in Uttar Pradesh and won with a landslide majority. His campaign was directed by his younger sister, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra. Since then he has reportedly sought to cultivate support from young Indians. Although he holds no other office and concentrates mainly on constituency issues and the politics of Uttar Pradesh, it has been widely speculated in the Indian and international press that Sonia Gandhi is trying to groom him for a chance to become a national-level Congress leader in the future.
