RaGa has developed a unique style of resolving factionalism in the party. On Monday, he decided to rush former Haryana chief minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda to Mumbai to resolve the feud between Gurudas Kamat and Sanjay Nirupam, the party's city unit chief. The decision came after Kamat, an AICC general secretary, hit out at Nirupam and fellow general secretary Mohan Prakash, accusing the duo of driving out leaders from Mumbai Congress ahead of civic elections in the city.
But Hooda himself is immersed neck deep in factionalism in Haryana. Some months ago, Sushil Kumar Shinde from Maharashtra had gone to Haryana to probe an assault on state Congress chief Ashok Tanwar, allegedly by Hooda supporters.
