No failure is permanent, stick to your principles: Sonia tells party workers

India Blooms News Service | | 22 May 2016, 10:27 am
New Delhi, May 22 (IBNS): Following the debacle in recently concluded Assembly Elections, Congress supremo Sonia Gandhi, in an attempt to boost up the morale of her party workers, has said that no failure is permanent and everyone should stick to their basic principles.
 
"Gaining success by discarding basic principles does not stay too long. If one follows principles, no failure is permanent," Sonia Gandhi said on Saturday while speaking at a programme to commemorate the 25th death anniversary of her husband and former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi. 
 
She said 25 years have passed since Rajiv Gandhi's death but "the Congress party has tried to fulfill each of his dream in these 25 years."
 
"Those who deal with hatred and terrorism had snatched away Rajivji from us but they could never snatch away his ideals from us," Sonia affirmed.
 
This comes after Congress witnessed defeat in the just concluded Assembly elections in Assam, Kerala, West Bengal and Tamil Nadu.
 
She claimed that, "We will compensate for each drop of Rajiv's blood on Indian soil by promoting brotherhood and strengthening social harmony."
 
Speaking on the occasion, Sonia said: "Rajiv ji had had introduced computers in the country, allowed people to vote at age of 18 to strengthen our democracy."
