"Targeting the Congress, the CM said it was passing through a difficult phase. On the one hand, it was organising a 'Bharat Jodo Yatra', on the other hand, the Congress MLAs of Goa and senior leaders Ghulam Nabi Azad, Himachal Congress Working president Pawan Kajal and sitting MLA Lakhvinder Rana have launched 'Congress Chodo' campaign. Now, a senior Congress leader of the state, Ram Lal Thakur, has resigned as senior vice-president of the party accusing the Congress leadership of nepotism and self-projection, he said.
