INTERVIEW
BHUPINDER SINGH HOODA CONGRESS LEADER AND FORMER CHIEF MINISTER
Excerpts:
Q/ How are poll preparations going?
A/ The clear undercurrent in Haryana is that the Congress is coming and the BJP is going. Leaders and workers are leaving the BJP and the Congress family is growing by the day. In the past one and a half years, more than 100 leaders, including incumbent and former MPs and state legislators, have joined the Congress. Three independent MLAs recently left the government and joined our party…. It is clear that people who voted for the BJP are disappointed today. Not just the people, but BJP leaders and workers, too, have had enough.
Q/ There seems to be a strong anti-BJP sentiment among farmers. Will it benefit the Congress?
