The power of protest is dimnishing in congress
The power of protest in congress is lowering down and almost diminished. On 99 percent of the occasions the congress leaders failed even to reach the destination they promised in the las three years. It has became just a photo session of protest and some slogans, not more than that. Resultantly, the congress hasn’t been able to keep the faith alive in common man and connect them over the issues for them. Thursday protest could also be kept in the same catagory.
