Almost every day is proving to be an adventure of sorts for the Congress in Maharashtra. Devoid of a strong leader, such as Sharad Pawar of the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP), the state Congress unit is fighting to stave off its perennial scourge: infighting. It continues to manifest in defections of several leaders with generations of “Congressi” background. Radhakrishna Vikhe Patil’s son Sujay joined the BJP and even got a ticket to contest from Ahmednagar. Reports of his father’s resignation emerged. However, Congress named Radhakrishna as one of the 40 star campaigners, sort of cementing their association. While Patil may or may not campaign in Ahmednagar, where his son is contesting, it will be interesting to watch how it pans out.
