It looks like Big guns of politics know that BJP will be coming to power in the coming elections and that there is no point in sticking to the Congress.
The Congress may not come to power in the next 5 years also. The BJP is here to stay for long with Modi or without Modi.
Former Maharashtra Chief Minister Ashok Chavan is to join the Bharatiya Janata Party after resigning from the grand old party, according to his office.
Ashok Chavan resigned from the primary membership of the Congress party on Monday.
Chavan was the Vice President and General Secretary of the Maharashtra Pradesh Youth Congress Committee from 1986 to 1995. He served the Maharashtra Legislative Assembly for three terms, starting in 1999 and ending in May 2014. He served as the Chief Minister of Maharashtra State from December 8, 2008, to November 9, 2010.
The Congress Party asked him to resign from office over corruption allegations relating to the Adarsh Housing Society scam.
He is the third big name to desert the Congress ship in Maharashtra. First to go was former South Mumbai MP Milind Deora, followed by former MLA Baba Siddique.
