Congress leadership is in touch with Kamal Nath, says Digvijaya Singh

The Congress leadership is in touch with former Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Kamal Nath, said his party colleague and Rajya Sabha member Digvijaya Singh on February 18 amid the ongoing speculations that Mr. Nath could move over to the BJP.

“I have been continuously discussing things with Kamal Nath ji, the Congress leadership is also in touch with him,” said Mr. Singh, adding that Mr. Nath was also under pressure from the enforcement agencies such as the Enforcement Directorate and the CBI, and the Income Tax Department.

Former State Minister and Kamal Nath loyalist Sajjan Singh Verma, who met Mr. Nath in Delhi, said the former Chief Minister had held a conversation with former Congress chief Rahul Gandhi and that he had “no plans of leaving the Congress”.
