Congress’ incompetence in handling border issues

The leaders of the Maha Vikas Aghadi have once again got an opportunity to blabber about the Maharashtra-Karnataka border issue after the statement made by Karnataka chief minister Basavaraj Bommai. These leaders who lost power in the state are agitated at the way things have politically unfolded. And hence due to this resentment, they are constantly making false propaganda on any issue arising in the state. I can totally understand their irritation and anger. But what surprises me is that the MVA leaders are not concerned about the repercussions of their deeds and are grabbing every opportunity to defame Maharashtra.
