Gujarat CM Vijay Rupani & Rajeev Satav exchange barbs on political endgame

Gujarat state Congress in-charge Rajeev Satav and Chief Minister Vijay Rupani on Tuesday got into a war of words about ending the political fortunes of rival parties. Satav on Tuesday said that chief minister Vijay Rupani will not remain in his post after two months, drawing a sharp rebuke from the latter as the hustings hotted up for the Lok Sabha elections in the state.
"The chief minister will not be in office after two months," Satav said when asked about Rupani's criticism of the Congress in the run-up to April 23 polls.
Reacting to Satav's remark, Rupani said that Congress president Rahul Gandhi's politics will be over in the next two months, seeking to imply that the Congress would lose the Lok Sabha polls. When contacted, Rupani said, "Is Satav joining the BJP and will come to our party to take a decision to remove me? He is daydreaming. The Congress tried to spread such rumours before 2017 state assembly elections," Rupani told reporters.
