Ex-Karnataka Chief Minister expresses anguish over “ad hocism” in party
Senior Congress leader M Veerappa Moily on Wednesday said his party should have struck an alliance with Mamata Banerjee’s TMC in the recent West Bengal elections, even as he expressed anguish over “ad hocism” in the grand old outfit. The former Union Minister also sought action against West Bengal Pradesh Congress Committee President Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury for the poll debacle in the State, describing him as a “weak leader with no grassroots touch”. In an interview to PTI, Mr. Moily cited wrong selection of alliance for the “wipe-out” in the State, where it had aligned with the Left and the Indian Secular Front.More Related News
