Can the GPCC chief pick a Bahujan Samaj or minority leader as CM: Urfan Mullah

Former Congress minority leader now in charge of BJP’s minority affairs in Goa, Urfan Mullah, led the charge against his former party’s side-lining of senior leaders like Faleiro. He said, “Digambar Kamat has finished the Congress. Giving power in the hands of Kamat is a humiliation for Congress. Digambar has declared himself as a leader. Why is Girish (Chodankar) silent.

This is the same kind of humiliation that had forced him to resign as well.

He also reiterated how Luizinho Faleiro was not allowed to form the government in 2017.

Mullah who reigned as the head of the Congress minority cell recently joined the leaders now across parties commenting on the clear divisions and dissent through the Congress’ rank and file culminating in the clear unhappiness of leaders like Luizinho Faleiro.

Speaking to reporters Mullah said, “Can the Congress leadership name a Bahujan Samaj or a minority leader as its Chief Ministerial face? I challenge them.”

He also charged that Central leaders were looking out to take money from new candidates. “It has become a business,” he said.
