RS elections: Rattled by resignations, Cong moves Gujarat MLAs to resorts

Rattled by resignations of 3 MLAs ahead of Rajya Sabha polls, the Congress in Gujarat shifted several of its legislators to resorts and bungalows to thwart any "poaching" bid, a party leader said. With the resignations of Akshay Patel and Jitu Chaudhary on June 3 and that of Brijesh Merja on June 5, the Congress' strength in the House has been reduced to 65.
