New Delhi:
With the speculation over his possible switch to the BJP reaching fever pitch after he arrived in Delhi earlier today, senior Congress leader and former Madhya Pradesh chief minister Kamal Nath will meet the ruling party’s leadership in the capital, sources have told NDTV.
Rumours of Mr Nath and his son, Nakul Nath, leaving the Congress have been doing the rounds for the past few days. They intensified earlier today when Nakul Nath, the lone Congress MP from Madhya Pradesh, dropped the party’s name from his bio on social media and Kamal Nath arrived in Delhi.Â
Earlier this month, Nakul Nath had declared himself the candidate from the Chhindwara Lok Sabha seat, which he had won in 2019, without waiting for the Congress to do so.Â
“This time, too, I will be your candidate for Lok Sabha elections. Rumours are going around whether Kamal Nath or Nakul Nath would contest the election, I would like to make it clear that Kamal Nath won’t contest the election, I will,” the Congress MP had said.Â
