Congress MP Nakul Kamal Nath dropped the party name from his social media bio
A day after Madhya Pradesh BJP chief VD Sharma claimed that there were some Congress leaders upset with the party’s leadership, Congress leader Nakul Kamal Nath dropped a major hint of a possible political switch after he removed the party name and symbol from his social media bio.
Nakul Nath’s move sparked rumours that his father and former Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Kamal Nath could also join the BJP. Amid such speculations, Kamal Nath, a Congress veteran, left for Delhi on Saturday.
According to a The New Indian Express report, the former Madhya Pradesh chief minister and his son Nakul Nath might join the saffron camp before Rahul Gandhi’s ‘Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra’ enters the BJP-ruled state.
Kamal Nath is reportedly upset as he was not consulted by the party leadership before the Congress nominated Gwalior-Chambal politician Ashok Singh for the Rajya Sabha elections.
VD Sharma earlier said that many senior Congress leaders are upset with their party leadership after the grand old party turned down the invitation to Ram Temple’s ‘Pran Pratishta’ ceremony.
He further added that the BJP will accept any Congress leader who wishes to join them with open arms, whether it is Kamal Nath or his son. However, the Congress has denied the rumours about any political switch for now.
