Varun Gandhi can never replace Rahul Gandhi. He doesn’t exude the same political sensibility, ideologies or charm as Rahul Gandhi does. His vociferous ideas against Muslims might have given him immense popularity for a short time, but this has added more names to the list of his opposition than to his supporters list. If you cannot attract people, you can go nowhere in politics.

Moreover, parental influence does make a difference in the politics of India today. While Sonia Gandhi is almost running the country today, Menaka gandhi is only known as a supporter of peta, and is a tiny figurine in the political world.

Taking all these points into consideration, i don’t think Varun Gandhi can ever replace Rahul Gandhi.

Varun Gandhi can never ever achieve what Rahul has already achieved .i.e. a good image in mind of common man. I am a supporter of BJP (but not RSS).he tried to take up the hindutva issue just to gain popularity. probably he tried being someone who he is not

Rahul is a much more mature personality. He will surely climb up a long way. But there are many more young politician much better than Rahul but what they lack is "Gandhi". I hate the monarchic system of congress

Rahul is well known person. he is related with Sonia and Rajiv Gandhi and also he has done good things in Raibareli. But for varun , he is just related to Menka Gandhi also one more point is that he has committed in one controversy. which is the main negative point in which he can't come before the Rahul but god knows who is right or wrong because they are political person. In the last election if the Rahul wants, he can become cabinet minister, but he denied to take the post. I don't know the exact reason may be he wants to become PM directly(but point is that he can't become as per the rules) whatever the reason ,Sonia and Rahul Gandhi both are very nice .
