Rahul Gandhi's Bhopal visit stride or retrograde?

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi is facing criticism after comparing political leaders to different types of horses during a speech in Bhopal. He used terms like “race horse,” “wedding horse,” and “lame horse,” which drew strong reactions. Some even said his remark was offensive to Divyangjan. Even some Congress leaders are not apparently happy about it. The controversy has raised doubts about whether Gandhi’s visit will help revive the party in Madhya Pradesh, especially when the Congress lacks active leaders and supporters in public movements or will it be a retrograde step of Gandhi?
