Times News Network

Panaji: Welcoming the decision of the High Court of Bombay at Goa on Wednesday, health minister Vishwajit Rane took the opportunity to hit out at the Congress Party that filed the petition of disqualification against him. "We all knew that there was no case. This was done only to cover their (Congress Party's) misdeeds and their failure. "The Congress party is bankrupt party. Congress leaders are today being investigated by various criminal agencies and police agencies for illegalities conducted by them during their tenure in power. Some are involved in illegal mining, some are involved in matka. This is the caliber of the Congress party and its leaders being investigated," Rane said, adding that there was "no question" of him going back to the party. "My career and my future lie with Manohar Parrikar and I will support him," he said, promising to strengthen the BJP in his constituency and neighbouring constituencies by ensuring that his supporters join the BJP
