7-8 Goa Congress MLAs, Including Ex-CM, Likely To Defect; 40 Cr For Each MLA Offered Reportedly

Описание: Goa Congress is in a crisis. The day began with the party, which has 11 MLAs in the state Assembly, refuting the buzz of a brewing rebellion, amid reports of some MLAs being in touch with the ruling BJP.
Former Goa Congress chief Girish Chodankar alleged that party MLAs were offered Rs 40 crore to join the BJP. According to him, calls are being made to Congress legislators by industrialists and the coal mafia.
The Goa Congress on Monday said it was seeking disqualification of two of its leaders - Michael Lobo and Digambar Kamat - from the Assembly over allegations that the two senior functionaries were trying to engineer defections in the opposition camp for a switchover to the BJP.
This comes as five Goa Congress MLAs, who went incommunicado a day before, attended the state Assembly proceedings on the first day of the monsoon session on Monday, and claimed there was "nothing wrong" in the opposition party.
