Cong needs to fix deep-rooted problems: Prashant Kishor

New Delhi

After the Lakhimpur Kheri incident, people are looking forward to an opposition led by the Grand Old Party (the Congress), but the party first needs to fix its deep-rooted problems and remove its structural weaknesses, said political strategist Prashant Kishor on Friday.

"People looking for a quick, spontaneous revival of GOP-led opposition based on #LakhimpurKheri incident are setting themselves up for big disappointment. Unfortunately, there are no quick-fix solutions to deep-rooted problems and structural weakness of GOP," he tweeted.

A total of eight people died in the violence that took place in Lakhimpur Kheri on October 3.
