New Delhi: Devbhoomi Dwarka district witnessed the biggest political transformation in history after Congress leaders joined BJP in Gujarat's Jamnagar district, almost completely wiping out the Congress in the district. Many important Congress leaders, including the General Secretary of the District Congress and the Leader of the Opposition in the Taluka Panchayat, joined the saffron party.

The leaders who joined BJP include Dwarka District Congress General Secretary and District Panchayat member Ibhabhai Karmur, Leader of Opposition and Taluka Panchayat member Yogeshbhai Nandania, Taluka Panchayat member Laxmanbhai Chavda, Dwarka Congress OBC Cell President Kishanbhai Bhatia, Taluka Panchayat member Malsibhai Dahiya, 800 Congress workers including Dwarka District Youth Congress President Sawan Karmur, Khambhaliya APMC Director Babubhai Gojia and 14 Sarpanches are included.

Poonamben Madam gave a big blow to Congress
Jamnagar MP Poonamben Madam, state cabinet minister Mulubhai Bera and district BJP president Mayurbhai Gadhvi welcomed all the Congress leaders at a meeting in Khambhaliya. Poonamben Madam said, 'Like the country, a Congress-free environment has been created in Jamnagar Lok Sabha constituency too. The people of India have also decided to free the country from Congress.' He further said, 'Congress leaders and workers have united to develop the country under the leadership of our beloved Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi.'

BJP becomes stronger across the state
Due to the developmental thinking of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the works of Poonamben Madam, the Congress Party has suffered the biggest setback in Devbhoomi Dwarka district. By defection, these leaders have clearly indicated their lack of faith in the leadership of the Congress and its ideology. Due to defection of so many Congress members, Congress has almost ceased to exist in Dwarka district. The incident is being seen as a major change in the political equation in Gujarat, where the BJP is consolidating its power across the state and also expanding its reach into traditional Congress strongholds.
