The curious case of Goa Congress Party: A ‘namesake’ Congress did not see coming
The Goa Congress Party (GCP) has applied for registration as a political party, prompting allegations from the Congress that it is a ploy by the BJP to split votes. The GCP, formed amid internal dissent within the Congress, denies these claims, asserting that it includes disgruntled Congress members. This development comes ahead of the upcoming Assembly polls in Goa, where the Congress previously faced significant losses, including defections to the BJP.
