Since the cartoonist is supposed to be a mirror of what happened, I am tweeting a thread of what the Great R K Laxman thought of Mr #RajeevGandhi over the years. Source of the cartoons is his collection by @PenguinIndia an excellent book if anyone wishes to collect

The reluctant Son who had to be crowned after the “Chosen One “ dies tragically.

Years later this Cartoon by Laxman would turn out to be a Prophecy.. #dynasty #RahulGandhi

Just the sons of the old guards are now guiding the Son.. that’s all has changed in 35 years.

Like father like son.. Even after 35 years the Son is also trying to eliminate poverty .

What did the country get in return? Name of a single family on everything from aroads to flyovers to airports and sporting awards. #Congress #RajeevGandhi

Talk about #RajivGandhi and scams of Congress. Let’s not forget he had a Massive mandate and absolute majority.

Let’s talk about #dynastypolitics
The opposition party was always divisive and wrong.. even In Those days without #Modi

Srilanka Peace Keeping force anyone ? A misadventure that cost us lives of hundreds of soldiers.. @desertfox61I can tell us more about it.:

And the current affairs. The famous #Lakshadweep vacation and #INSvirat being used by #RajeevGandhi doesn’t go unnoticed by the Great cartoonist either
