The feud between the Congress and its former alliance partner, the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP), has escalated with the former Chief Minister, Prithviraj Chavan, alleging that the NCP pulled out of the government to allow the BJP to govern the State through President’s Rule. “Pulling the government down was very suspicious.
By doing this, the NCP handed over the State to the BJP on a platter. In Jammu and Kashmir, when alliance partners decided to contest separately, they did not pull down the government,” Mr. Chavan said in an interview to The Hindu . Mr. Chavan asked, “What is the political compulsion to give such a clear advantage to the BJP?”
