Kamal Nath to be Leader of Opposition?

India Blooms News Service | | 20 May 2014, 02:57 pm
New Delhi, May 20 (IBNS) Congress leader and outgoing Union minister Kamal Nath is likely to become the Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha, said reports on Tuesday.

Decimating the ruling Congress in a landslide victory, Narendra Modi led the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) to win 285 seats out of 543 that made it the first party to cross the majority mark of 272 on its own in over 30 years.

Riding on an unprecedented wave of expectations coupled with widespread resentment against the ruling Congress-led United Progressive Alliance (UPA), Modi almost singled-handedly bought the BJP-led National Deocratic Alliance (NDA) to a 340-seat-tally.

Sonia and Rahul Gandhi-led Congress party meanwhile was routed to just 44 seats, a huge 162 seats short of last time, ending Prime Minister Manmohan Singh’s tenure with a humiliating blow.
