Surely, he would have known what he was into when contemplating joining the Congress, or was it a new turn of events that transpired, did he expect a bigger role than he was offered, or did he just simply suddenly get cold feet?<\/p>\n<h4>Lack of FreeHand<\/h4>\n<p>According to sources, Congress was reticent to completely give full powers to Prashant Kishor to strategize as he wished and Prashant Kishor in turn was not eager to be restricted. Sources revealed to News18 that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hamslive.com\/news\/2021\/05\/02\/prashant-kishore-said-never-ever-seen-a-more-blatant-use-of-jai-shri-ram-and-religious-slogans-as-much-as-seen-in-bengal-campaign\/\">Kishor<\/a> wanted to be given a free hand in the Congress, which he got in Trinamool Congress. However, after a series of internal meetings with Congress, Kishor felt that won\u2019t be possible, sources added.<\/p>\n<p>Sources wanting to be unnamed in Congress revealed that &#8220;The difference was on how to execute the revival. PK wanted to be a disruptor. The party wanted incremental changes,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;While the 45-year-old wanted a free hand to bring in sweeping changes and play the role of a disruptor, the Congress leadership ultimately found itself wary of a complete overhaul, preferring incremental changes instead, sources in the Congress revealed.<\/p>\n<p>The poll strategist declined to join the EAG due to the party leadership\u2019s reluctance to accept the \u201ctransformational reforms\u201d he wanted to carry out.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There was a meeting between Prashant Kishor and the leadership preceding the announcement and the tweets where it was mutually agreed that an agreement could not be reached,&#8221; one leader said, requesting not to be named.<\/p>\n<p>Prashant Kishore said, &#8220;On my side, I had a bad experience working with them on UP (2017 elections). And hence I was very skeptical. I did not want to get in having my hands tied&#8230; the Congress leadership, because of my background, they are not wrong in being skeptical about whether I will be 100 percent loyal to them,&#8221; Mr. Kishor had said, adding that he was certain the Congress needs a &#8220;revamp&#8221; to defeat the BJP.<\/p>\n<h4>Was it the Trust Deficit?<\/h4>\n<p>According to conspiracy theories against Prashant Kishor where some believed he would topple the Congress government while others felt that in pushing Rahul Gandhi to the backseat as Parliamentary party leader, he was phasing him out.\u00a0 Others were suspicious that Kishore was scheming to become the prime ministerial candidate for 2024.\u00a0 Was it these theories that made Kishore step down because he knew if there was no trust, it would be a neverending battle within, thus how could they fight elections together, without trust?<\/p>\n<p>In a nutshell, there are mixed reactions to Kishore&#8217;s stepdown, with most feeling letdown. Take a look at some of the reactions:<\/p>\n<p>Golden Sunrise: &#8220;Something doesn&#8217;t measure up.\u00a0 You proposed &amp; expressed interest in Congress.\u00a0 Prepared 600 slides to empower congress only to decline the offer to join \ud83e\udd14\ud83d\ude44<\/p>\n<p>Spare us from all speculation&amp;<br \/>\nPlz elaborate what was your main condition to join the party maybe that is the real solution.&#8221;<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Something doesn&#39;t measure up<br \/>You proposed &amp; expressed interest in Congress<br \/>Prepared 600 slides to empower congress only to decline the offer to join \ud83e\udd14\ud83d\ude44<\/p>\n<p>Spare us from all speculation&amp;<br \/>Plz elaborate what was your main condition to join the party maybe that is the real solution<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; GoldenSunrise (@Divine2061416) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Divine2061416\/status\/1518912541971386368?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 26, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Dilip Mandal:\u00a0 You are a very lowly businessman.
