Gourav Vallabh, the spokesperson for Congress, submitted his resignation from the party on Thursday. He gave this information on his X (Formally Twitter) post. He wrote, “I am resigning from all posts and primary membership of the Congress party.” Vallabh also claimed in his resignation letter that the party’s foundation has totally collapsed and that it has no comprehension of New India’s ambitions.
Disillusionment with Party Direction
Gourav Vallabh said in a post on X, “I do not feel comfortable with the directionless way in which the Congress party is moving forward today. I can neither raise anti-Sanatana slogans nor abuse the wealth creators of the country. I am resigning from all posts and primary membership of the Congress party.”
“As a result, the party is neither coming into power nor able to play a strong role as an opposition. This disappoints a worker like me. Bridging the gap between senior leaders and grassroots workers is very difficult, which is essential politically,” he added.
Lack of Worker Empowerment
Congress spokesperson added, “Until a worker can directly suggest to their leader, any kind of positive change is not possible.” Vallabh said, “These days, the party is moving forward in the wrong direction. On one hand, we talk about the caste-based census, while on the other hand, there is a perception of being against the Sampurn Hindu Samaj (entire Hindu society).”
“This approach is giving the public a misleading message that the party is supportive only of a particular religious group. This goes against the fundamental principles of the Congress party,” he added.

The 2024 Lok Sabha elections are scheduled to take place in seven stages, starting on April 19 and ending on June 1. On June 4, the outcomes of this historic democratic event—often referred to as the world’s greatest democratic exercise—will be made public.
