It seems like the rift between Congress leader Hardik Patel and the party has now widened as Patel has removed Congress from his Twitter, WhatsApp, and Telegram bio. Not only that but, he changed his display picture with one wearing a saffron shawl amidst speculations of Hardik Patel's exit from the party.
Patel’s Twitter bio now reads only ‘Proud Indian Patriot. Social and Political Activist’. Before that development, Hardik Patel had the ‘Gujarat Congress’ in his bio which he has now removed. This development came months ahead of the Gujarat state assembly elections.
Last week, responding to questions about the possibilities of him joining the BJP, Patel had maintained that he had no such plans.
"Proud Indian Patriot. Social and Political Activist. Committed to a better India," Hardik Patel's new Twitter bio read.
Earlier, Hardik had taken a dig at Congress and said that Congress had done ‘nasbandi’ (vasectomy) on him by inducting him into the party. Hardik Patel had also expressed his disappointment over the Congress party not utilising him properly. Speaking to the media, Patel had said that it might be because people felt threatened by him within the party.
