Hardik Patel Removes ‘Working President Of Gujarat Congress’ From His Twitter Bio

Mumbai: Congress’ Hardik Patel has removed the mention of “working president of Gujarat Congress” from his Twitter bio amid reports that he is unhappy with the party. Patel’s Twitter bio now reads “Proud Indian Patriot. Social and Political Activist”.

This has given rise to speculations that he is going to join the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) ahead of the Gujarat Assembly elections.

Patel was invited by Gujarat Pradesh Congress Committee (GPCC) president Jagdish Thakor for talks last month following a public outcry against the leadership of the party’s state unit.

Patel had earlier tweeted stating “there were others” who wanted him to leave the Congress.

“I am in Congress currently. I hope the central leaders find a way so that I continue to remain in Congress. There are others who want Hardik to leave Congress. They want to break my morale,” Patel tweeted.

Patel, who shot into the limelight as the leader of the 2015 Patidar agitation, joined the Congress earlier in March.

He had recently praised the ruling BJP, saying the saffron party was strong because it had politicians with leadership qualities.

Patel, however, later clarified that he had no plans to join the BJP.
