Captain Amarinder Singh was clearly the flag bearer of the Congress victory in Punjab, but it is also the organisation which worked as one team that played a major role. This win is a morale booster for the Congress party, which has been dealing with a string of defeats since the 2014 Lok Sabha Elections. The Gandhi family has been an asset as well as a liability for the party. They keep the party intact. But it is also time for them to introspect and co-opt younger leaders like Priyanka Gandhi, Jyotiraditya Scindia, Sachin Pilot and Jitin Prasad.
