In an exclusive interview with Quint Hindi's Shadab Moizee, Congress-turned-BJP leader Gaurav Vallabh said he fled the Congress camp as he had "ideological differences" with the party.

Vallabh said, the saffron camp met his "3 non-negotiable demands", which he stated in his resignation letter. He claimed while Rahul Gandhi was a "good person", he was "not fit for politics".

On the Goods & Services Tax (GST), the former Congress spokersperson said it was a "wonderful concept, but had some issues".

On Electoral Bonds, he said that it was the "first step towards transparency".
