Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge on Tuesday said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi was frustrated after sensing that the opposition's INDIA bloc was heading for a majority in the Lok Sabha elections.
Internal squabbles are one of the key diseases plaguing the Congress party today. Many leaders are alleged to have close connections with rival parties and their loyalty is questionable.
