Deora Quits Congress, Joins Shinde Faction Criticizing Party's Anti-Business Rhetoric and Lack of Constructive Opposition
- Milind Deora resigned from Congress and joined CM Eknath Shinde's Shiv Sena faction
- Deora slammed Congress, saying it is very different from the party his father joined in 1968
- He criticized Congress for "abusing industrialists and businessmen", unlike 30 years ago when it ushered in economic reforms
- Deora remarked that Congress today just opposes whatever PM Modi says or does, unlike in the past when it used to offer constructive suggestions
- Deora said he joined Shinde's faction because the CM works among public and he wants to strengthen Shinde's hand
