Ashok Chavan likely to join BJP today, a day after former Maharashtra CM quit Congress
Former Maharashtra CM Ashok Chavan is set to join BJP today after resigning from the Congress party yesterday. His departure adds to a trend of prominent leaders exiting the party, including Milind Deora and Baba Siddique. Chavan's move follows earlier aspirations to join BJP and secure a senior cabinet position in Maharashtra. Despite initial hurdles, he is expected to receive a Rajya Sabha seat offer. His exit deals a blow to Congress, given his stature as a former Chief Minister and mass leader.
