Rift in Congress, Gurudas Kamat quits BMC Polls team and even sent an open text message against Sanjay Nirupam

The ongoing rift between Gurudas Kamat and Sanjay Nirupam seem to have widened. On Friday, All India Congress Committee (AICC) general secretary and former MP Gurudas Kamat withdrew from party’s poll campaign, while hitting out at city party chief Sanjay Nirupam for his “negative attitude”.
Earlier in the day, Mr. Kamat sent a text message to party workers saying, “All applicants for Mumbai municipal corporation tickets are requested to contact their local MLA candidates and district Congress president to get party nomination as I have withdrawn from the entire exercise of selection of candidates and campaign due to negative attitude of Sanjay Nirupam.”
Reacting to Mr. Kamat’s allegations, Mr. Nirupam said the distribution of tickets was a democratic process. “Right now we are focussed on throwing out the Shiv Sena and the BJP from the BMC. These issues could be looked at after the civic elections,” he said.
