India Today
Jammu and Kashmir's former Youth Congress president, Amin Bhatt, met Ghulam Nabi Azad and said that he will become the next Chief Minister of J&K.
A day after Ghulam Nabi Azad resigned from his post in Congress, Jammu and Kashmir's former Youth Congress president, Amin Bhatt, said on Saturday that “Ghulam Nabi Azad will be the next Chief Minister of J&K”.
Ex MLA, Amin Bhatt, met Azad on Saturday. "We will discuss the way forward, we are not a B team of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)," Bhatt said.
Veteran politician Ghulam Nabi Azad on Friday resigned from the party with sharp jabs at the Gandhis and the organisational leadership.
In a letter addressed to Congress president Sonia Gandhi, Azad cited the sidelining of senior leaders and the increasing sway of a "coterie of inexperienced sycophants" as the reasons behind his exit from the party.
The former Rajya Sabha MP also lashed out at Rahul Gandhi, blaming his "immaturity" for the Congress's dwindling political clout and poor performance in elections. After resigning, he said he will soon form his own party in Jammu and Kashmir.
“I will be setting up my outfit in Jammu and Kashmir soon. I will not be joining the BJP,” Azad said.
