Conflict Of Interest: I am a member of India Research Watch. I created that article with a COI disclosure on the talk page before I became involved with the organisation. It has since been reviewed independently by other editors. I am also affiliated with City College of New York.

Political Belief and Values...
I believe Rahul Gandhi is what India needs right now. Not because he is perfect. He has walked into the parts of India that most politicians fly over: sat with farmers, workers, and tribal communities, and actually listened without performing.

I still believe the Indian National Congress has a real role to play in Indian democracy, and he is a big part of why. जय हिन्द!
