Senior Congress leader Digambar Kamat left for New Delhi on Sunday, amid speculation that he may join the ruling BJP. Kamat has previously served as the Chief Minister of Goa from 2007 to 2012 when he was in Congress.
As Lok Sabha elections are just weeks ahead, the Congress party has resorted to its old strategy of personal attacks against the Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
At a time when the Congress party is struggling to keep its flock together with more leaders quitting almost every day to join the BJP, it appears even their allies are working actively to undermine their interests and strengthen their rivals.
