Rahul Gandhi's failure to rein in old warhorses cost Congress dear

Congress ignored gaps in campaign in MP, Chhattisgarh, and Rajasthan due to favorable feedback. Rahul Gandhi failed to prevail upon veterans on candidate selection and poll feedback. BJP faced strong anti-incumbency in MP. Kamal Nath did not utilize advantage with intensive local campaign. Three AICC in-charges were changed in MP. Rahul could not rein in Nath. Rahul also could not win argument with CM Ashok Gehlot over candidate selection in Rajasthan.
