Madhya Pradesh: Why Did Kamal Nath Govt Fall & What Happens Next?

The Quint  

The Congress in Madhya Pradesh has always been a divided house – not just now, but for the past several decades. Scindia’s supporters claim that Kamal Nath and Digvijaya Singh closed ranks and sidelined him, and that the tipping point came when the party didn’t make him their first choice in the Rajya Sabha elections, choosing Digvijaya Singh instead. There was also criticism from the rebel MLAs regarding Kamal Nath’s style of functioning. Even neutral people do point out that Kamal Nath’s hands-on, unilateral style of functioning didn’t go down well with many. First, the vacuum in the Congress’ national leadership meant that there was no one who could mediate and solve the tussle between Kamal Nath and Scindia.
