Explaining his shock exit from a party he had been a part of for 38 years, former Maharashtra chief minister Ashok Chavan has said the Congress is "sinking" and discontent is brewing among its ranks.
In an exclusive interview with NDTV on Thursday, Mr Chavan, who has been nominated for the Rajya Sabha polls by the BJP, said the "mood of the nation" is in favour of his new party and its track record on development is for all to see.
