Congress’s victory in Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh isn’t as much about Rahul Gandhi going from Pappu to “Param Pujya”, like MNS Chief Raj Thackeray puts, as it is about Narendra Modi’s 36-inch chest shrinking to 20 inches.
Yes, talking about Rahul Gandhi, he has grown a lot. And not just that. The way he tackled the constant attacks from BJP – their social media goons and the gatekeeper of the country – on his mother, father, grandparents with high composure is incredibly commendable. His understanding of issues has grown. He looks to be much more grounded to the core issues of the country (even just for the rhetoric sake). He seems to have a good command over the entire party following Sonia Gandhi passing the party’s presidency to her son.
Above and all, although they say don’t take politicians at their face value, Congress President Rahul Gandhi looks quite modest. He isn’t “young” just for the names shake—he does functions like someone young, passionate and concerned. The analysts asked him not to target PM Narendra Modi directly—he did it anyway by questioning the “gatekeeper” on important issues. They made fun of the way he spoke, mispronounced and commit goof-ups—he continued with his ways. The media dragged him to dirt and thorn—he continued working.
He might not necessarily be the “Param Pujya” like MNS Chief Raj Thackeray puts it. But his stature as a politician and leader has surely grown to newer heights over the course of one year. And his this speech in the parliament during no-confidence motion was one of the biggest game-changers:
But then a large part of the credit must also go to BJP, Amit Shah and PM Narendra Modi. If they didn’t continue spreading propaganda, lying, pulling the Hindu-Muslim topic and just fooling the voters, Rahul Gandhi wouldn’t have been in this position.

When you are in politics you cannot be a good person, but you can always be a better politician than the other.
Concluding directly may not lead to a conclusion who is better than the other. The following basis of comparison need to be considered in deciding :
1. Image as a politician: Modi no doubt has a better image nationally as well as internationally. Political experts even consider Modi as a "brand".
2. Political Experience: It is said "the older the wine, the better it is" Thus the more experience you have the better edge you have over others. Modi has a long and diverse experience than Rahul and thus has a better hand over Gandhi.
3. Decisiveness: The power to take decisions which need guts and often invite brutal criticism. On this parameter, Modi and Rahul both weigh equally. Modi took the bold move of demonitisation and GST, whereas Rahul waived off the farm loans in Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh.
4. Leadership: To state the leadership traits of a politician is a subjective task. Though both of them have the full command over their respective parties, both showed their leadership during the campaign rallies, but the style of their leadership is quite different. Where Modi is considered as an autocratic leader, Rahul is often seen as a Democratic leader (because he does not have as experience as Modi)
5. Vision: Modi believes in Capitalist structure where he is seen as a leader who believes that development through investments. Whereas RaGa is softer on his counterpart and a bit inclined towards Socialist pattern (as seen on his election manifestos of various states elections and general election)
Now the readers may decide themselves who is better than the other.

The burning question of this decade is which candidate between Narendra Modi and Rahul Gandhi is better for the position of next prime minister of India. People may hold different opinions, but I stand with Narendra Modi on this one.
There have been loads of allegations on this man and he has been criticized by the opposition for being a mere "chaiwala". However even after these allegations the man hold the potential to be at the position he is currently at more that his competitor. Throughout his service in the past five years, he has proved himself to be a far sighted man with quick decision making power.
Throughout his term he has introduce a lot of policies for the betterment of the economy as well as the society. He has constantly attempted to improve India's relation with other countries, resulting in a manifold increase in Foreign Direct Investment (FDI).
His calls like demonetization and sanctioning of surgical strike and air strike have proved that he will do anything to curb what is wrong. His government has totally revolutionized the tax system of the country. It is believed that following this system would really help in the economy in the long term. His work to digitalize the transactions in the country and reduce disparities among the country have really proved successful.
Obviously some of his policies didn't work out but unlike other parties he actually tried to make a difference. During his term the country saw some changes which were not seen during the term of UPA (alliance party of Congress) thus making my trust shift towards them.
