Kamal Nath, the leader of the Congress party, arrived in Delhi on Saturday, amid rumors that he is considering making a transfer to the Bharatiya Janata Party. There has been no confirmation of the significant change from the Madhya Pradesh stalwart, who is considered to be one of the most prominent Congress leaders after the Gandhi family. Additionally, he has not refuted it, which is equally crucial. Can you please explain why “Indira Gandhi’s third son” is so upset with the Congress? Sajjan Singh Verma, a close colleague of Kamal Nath, dropped hints that his boss had been insulted on the matter.
In an interview with ANI, he stated that the leader’s self-respect had been damaged. In the realm of politics, there are three things that are effective: respect, insult, and self-respect. When these are wounded, a person changes his decisions. In his statement, he essentially confirmed that there is a schism within the Madhya Pradesh Congress. “When such a top politician who has done a lot for Congress and the nation in the last 45 years thinks of moving away from his party, then all three factors work behind it,” he added.
On the other hand, he stated that there has been no decision made regarding Kamal Nath’s complete departure from the Congress.
“No decision has been made that Kamal Nath ji is going, right there is just speculation,” said the politician. Verma confessed to HT that Nath was in a great deal of pain due to an unspecified matter that occurred within the Congress. “Meeting senior leaders” is the reason why Nath is in Delhi.
Although the Congress high command blamed Kamal Nath for the failure of the party in the Madhya Pradesh elections, sources claim that he has been in contact with BJP leaders ever since the Congress high command made the accusation. In addition to this, he was ousted from his post as president of the Madhya Pradesh Congress, and he was not appointed as the leader of the opposition in the state assembly.
In addition, Kamal Nath was displeased with the declaration that Ashok Singh will be serving in the Rajya Sabha.
The Congress tries to appease Kamal Nath.
In the meantime, the Congress party attempted to appease Kamal Nath by referring to him as Indira Gandhi’s third son.
“In the 45 years of Kamal Nath’s political career, he has been working with the party for the last seven years as Madhya Pradesh Congress chairman. This is the first time that Indira Gandhi has stated that Kamal Nath is her third son. This was the first time that Indira Gandhi made this statement after Kamal Nath fought elections. The news that is being speculated about is without foundation; can you even fathom the possibility of Indira Gandhi’s third son leaving the Congress party?
I still recall when Scindia overthrew the Congress administration in the state of Madhya Pradesh. All of the Congress workers stood in solidarity with Kamal Nath’s leadership and ideology. According to Jitu Patwari, the leader of the Congress party, “I can’t even think about something like that in my dreams. “In addition, he asserted that the rumors that he was leaving the Congress were without foundation.
Kamal Nath
“Every Congress worker has worked under Kamal Nath’s leadership just two months ago; he cannot leave them (Congress workers),” said the congressman.
It was on Friday night, according to Digvijaya Singh, that he had a conversation with Kamal Nath.
“The individual who began his political career with the Nehru-Gandhi family and who stood together during the time when the entire Janata Party and the central government at the time were planning to send Indira Gandhi to jail.” There is no way that you could ever expect that somebody, Kamal Nath, to abandon the families of Sonia Gandhi and Indira Gandhi. It is not something you should anticipate,” Singh told the media.
