The strength of the Congress party, and its ability to create a new future for Indians both rich and poor, young and old, urban and rural, and for its men and women, lies in the extraordinary qualities of both its leaders and the values that it espouses. Our leaders have had the ability to see the future. Whether it was Jawaharlal Nehru, who had a vision of an Independent India or the young Rajiv
Gandhi who had a dream of a 21st century India, this is a party that has always had leaders with ability too see the future. Their greatness lay in the fact that, beyond merely crafting a vision, each of these leaders had the ability to manage the process of driving the country so that it was able to translate their vision in to a shared reality.
