Nagendra’s resignation not due to BJP protests, claims Minister
Minister Satish Jarkiholi stated that the resignation of B. Nagendra was an internal Congress party decision rather than a result of BJP protests. He addressed allegations regarding the Maharshi Valmiki ST Development Corporation scam.
Why it matters
