MARGARET ALVA: RESIGNATION

Alva's statement and resignation may start series of apprehensions

Following her charges, veteran Congressman and President of the party’s Scheduled Castes Cell, Yogendra Makwana said that the party should not sit idle over the issue and should look into the matter.

What was first looked at as an 'emotional outburst' has, after the remarks, from Makwana taken a different turn altogether. It shows clearly that there is apprehension within the Congress circle and if the leaders don't take the matter seriously, then it may set off a series of chain reactions. At this point of time, Congress is not ready for any such problem as the crucial Assembly Elections are nearby.

Many Congressmen may be saying that Alva's statements and her consequent resignation will not make any difference to the party, but it is worth noting that it has been a long time since a senior Congress leader has come against the party and taken some stand.
