[edit] Congress (S) shenanigans

1978-80 was a confusing time, but not all members of the congress (U) went into the Congress (S). Jagjivan Ram was part of urs' party, and he split away first; YB Chavan left the party, anticipating a return to the Congress (I). The Congress (U) deserves its own page as the first proto-Third Front type thing, an national alliance of pure regional leaders. The rump of the Congress (U) did in fact become the Congress (S), but after its ranks were decimated and Sharad Pawar assumed command. Hornplease 00:45, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
