Panaji : Even as Rahul Gandhi crisscrosses country with his Bharat Jodo rally, breakaway within the party continues unabated. The latest blow, and a major one, comes from Goa where, eight Congress MLAs including former Chief Minister bid goodbye to join BJP.
Hopping away to the saffron camp are : former CM Digambar Kamat, Michel Lobo, Delilah Lobo, Rajesh Phaldesai, Kedar Naik, Sankalp Amankar, Aleixo Sequeira and Rudolf Fernandes.
This leaves Congress with just three MLAs in the state.
