A DAY AFTER senior Congress leader Kamal Nath attended a meeting on Rahul Gandhi’s Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra to take stock of preparations for it, several Congress leaders from his stronghold of Chhindwara switched to the BJP Wednesday.
Kamal Nath is all over the political headlines from past few days with rumours around his switch to the BJP. Amid hectic developments around his decision, a flag of "Jai Shri Ram" is missing from the top of his Delhi residence. The political observers are interpreting it as a signal that the former CM of Madhya Pradesh is reconsidering his decision to join BJP.
As speculation swirls around Kamal Nath’s future in the Congress, sources close to him have indicated that he is in a dilemma about switching to the BJP. The former Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister has seen his stock in the party take a hit following the debacle in the Assembly elections in December in which the BJP bagged 163 seats while the Congress, widely expected to do well, saw its tally plummet to 66 constituencies.
The likely entry of former Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister, ex-Union minister and long-time Congress leader Kamal Nath into the BJP begs the question — what does the BJP, which defeated the Congress comprehensively in the recent state Assembly polls, gain from his anticipated entry?
The political landscape of Madhya Pradesh is undergoing some serious churning as senior Congress leader and former Chief Minister Kamal Nath is expected to join the Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP). The MP Congress has decided to stay optimistic and dismissed all such possibilities, but Kamal Nath is already in Delhi and will likely have a meeting with BJP's leadership. Amid suspense, former Congress leader Sanjay Jha took a jibe at BJP for inducting a number of Congress leaders and said ‘India has become BJP mukt Bharat.’
Will Madhya Pradesh Congress leader Kamal Nath switch to the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) ahead of the Lok Sabha Election 2024? Amid speculations, several reports claimed that the former Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister could be upset with the Congress leadership. NDTV quoted sources as saying on Saturday that "Kamal Nath has conveyed his unhappiness to the Congress leadership".
Even as senior Congress leaders insisted there was no possibility of former Madhya Pradesh chief minister Kamal Nath leaving the party for the BJP, some in the party’s state unit admitted things had gone downhill ever since the disastrous showing in the Assembly polls and his ouster as state president.
In what will be another setback to the Congress on the eve of the Lok Sabha elections, party veteran leader Kamal Nath and his son and Lok Sabha MP Nakul are likely to quit the party and join the BJP, sources said.
