A user on the popular micro-blogging site Twitter posted a rare picture of veteran Congress leader Jaipal Reddy dating back to his Janata Dal days. The former Union minister passed away after a brief illness at a hospital in Hyderabad. In the picture, which takes one back in time, can be seen others from the party at that time including, former prime minister, Deve Gowda, Janata party stalwart and former Karnataka chief minister Ramakrishna Hegde, Union minister Ram Vilas Paswan, Sharad Yadav, former Union minister and ex-Karnataka chief minister, S.R. Bommai. Here's the tweet with the pic:

Very rare photo.But the apathy of Indian politics is while stalwarts like RK.Hegde decides to be in the background the lesser mortals like Gowda and Paswan steal the lime lights.
