Politics is a classic example to show how unpleasant and unwanted incidents from rival camps cheer up the other parties. Take, for example, the Congress in Maharashtra. Their hopes started floating up soon after BJP decided to nominate Karnataka ex-CM B S Yeddyurappa from the Shimoga Lok Sabha (LS) seat, and join hands with the BSR Congress leader B S Sriramulu. While the ex-CM was indicted for profiteering from the mining scam in Karnataka, the latter is close to the Reddy brothers, who were allegedly involved in the scam.
