@INCIndia: #The_Bakers_Dozen_Names

Supporters of #IndianNationalCongress claim, their party gave India the freedom at midnight. They know not the fact that the INC underwent several episodes of fission throughout the post Independence period.
#Part1

Original Congress had "Tricolor with Charkha" as the flag from 1931 to 1947. After 1947, it was given up as Congress became a political party from a freedom movement.

Nehru's Congress had "Two bullocks with a plough" as the symbol from 1952.
#part2

The 1971 fission was the biggest and the faction lead by Indira Gandhi acquired the "cow with suckling calf" symbol. The "Hand" became Congress symbol only from 1977.
#Part3

Subsequently, the so called "Grand Old Party" or GOP has usurped all the name and credit of the original Congress. In reality, the Sonia Gandhi lead party is "Indian Notional Congress". It is Indian, itself is a notion.
#Part4

From this brief history, let's move to present day. Congress is a fluid entity. It can become different things to different people. To each, his or her own. Here is a humble attempt to bead together the Congress Triodasha Nāmāvali...
#Part5

#Con_gress: In simplest form, it has helped Sonia Gandhi to Con people at will.

#Con_grass: It is obvious, the party doesn't care for the cow. It's the "other" grass for Rahul Gandhi.

#Kaumgress: For those who put "Kaum" before everything else.
#Part6

#CongRSS: Name given by Kaumunists for playing "soft-Hindutva" card.

.#Con_gress: With the party totally decimated in Andhra and Telangana, it has attained decimal state. Hence comes after a dot.
#Part7

#Clowngress: With each passing day, there's a faction in party that wants return of Clown-Prince as President.

#Kaungress: To Hoards of their leaders migrating to BJP, it's "Who Congress ?"

#Scamgress: Well established name given by people sick of the "Scamily" rule.
#Part8

#Porngress: People like Abhisex Singhvi, Dick VJ Singh etc have brought this name to the party.

#Loangress: The "Phone pe Loan" culture has brought this name.

#Bonegress: Pidi, the favorite dog of Rahul loves bones. Hence the name.
#Part9

#Dhongress: Dhong is cheating. It is Indian version of Con-gress.

#Gonegress: People who believe in Amit Shah think, it is a gone-case

There can be innumerable names. But we've to stop somewhere for brevity. Hence we stop at Baker's Dozen.
#Part10

Baker's Dozen represents corruption and and subversion typical of Congress. Finally, those bored of this article can call this #Yawngress !
