Chhagan Bhujbal set to join Congress (415 words)
Bhujbal, who is reportedly in Pachoura, will arrive in Pune on Tuesday morning before proceeding to New Delhi where he is scheduled to meet NCP chief Sharad Pawar.
During the last four-and-a-half years Bhujbal (as deputy chief minister in the Democratic Front government), had made considerable progress in galvanizing backward caste MLAs within the NCP to counter the `Maratha' lobby that was working towards effecting his ouster.
Bhujbal's ability at pulling off such a coup is a known fact.
Exit Bhujbal (1234 words)
IN the drama that followed the resignation of Chhagan Bhujbal as the Deputy Chief Minister and Home Minister of Maharashtra, two issues were sidelined - the resignation's real reasons and its possible impact on the government in the State run by the Nationalist Congress Party-Congress(I) coalition, the Democratic Front (D.F.).
This indicates that the resignation was planned before and not, as claimed by Bhujbal, in reaction to the attack on the office of a television channel by NCP workers.
For that matter he was also a liability for the Congress(I)." However, though Bhujbal has quit the Cabinet, he continues to be a vital member of the NCP and rumours indicate that he might be considered for the post of the NCP State president.
