Mr. Bishoni, who had returned to the Congress after merging his own party, the Haryana Janhit Congress, had on Tuesday in a series of tweets, alleged that there are several devoted Congress party leaders across the country who feel alienated and discontented.

@JM_Scindia’s departure is a big blow to @INCIndia. He was a central pillar in the party & the leadership should’ve done more to convince him to stay. Like him, there are many other devoted INC leaders across the country who feel alienated, wasted & discontented,” said Mr. Bishnoi, who is Congress MLA from Adampur Assembly constituency in Haryana.

In another tweet, he said “India’s oldest party needs to empower young leaders who have the capacity to work hard & resonate with the masses.”
