Even after swearing oaths before the Almighty Gods of all the three religions as well as by placing their hands on Constitution of India, hectic activity is still on in the Congress camp to defect and join the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party. The 11-member Congress needs eight members (two third) to avoid disqualification, failing which they have to resign and face bye-election to get re-elected on the BJP tickets. But they have signed affidavits that if they resign, they will not re-contest any Assembly election during the whole term.
Will the Supreme Court admitting disqualification petition against 10 MLAs, who quit the Congress and joined the BJP, have any impact on the existing all-powerful BJP government of Goa? And will these MLAs, including three ministers, lose their status?
