Former Chief Minister Digambar Kamat, who took the Congress party to the trough in Goa, has said after joining the BJP that it was all due to the will of God. Digambar Kamat has said that before resigning from Congress, I had gone to the temple and asked God what should I do? So, God told me to do whatever is best for you, just then I thought it right to resign.
Digambar Kamat was responding to media queries on what happened when Congress candidates were administered loyalty pledges at a temple and church earlier this year ahead of the Goa Assembly elections. So, in response to this, Kamat said that whatever has happened has happened only by the will of God.
