The Congress party has just faced a major setback with the resignation of two of its leaders, Neeraj Basoya and Naseeb Singh. These two were also serving as observers for two Lok Sabha seats in Delhi. In their resignation letters addressed to party president Mallikarjun Kharge, they have cited the Congress' alliance with AAP as the main reason for their departure.
Former MLA and party Observer for the West Delhi Parliamentary Seat, Neeraj Basoya, expressed his disappointment with the party's decision to align with AAP in Delhi. He stated, "As a self-respecting party leader, I cannot continue to be associated with the party anymore. The alliance has brought great disrepute and embarrassment to Delhi Congress workers on a daily basis." Basoya went on to thank Sonia Gandhi for giving him opportunities over the last 30 years, but ultimately tendered his resignation from all party posts and primary membership.
Naseeb Singh, former MLA and party observer for North West Delhi, also shared his concerns in his resignation letter. He expressed his displeasure with the appointment of Davinder Yadav as the Delhi Congress chief, given his past campaigns attacking Arvind Kejriwal and now having to support him as Delhi's CM.
These resignations follow closely after veteran Congress leader Arvind Singh Lovely also stepped down as Delhi unit chief due to differences with the Central leadership. With the Lok Sabha polls in Delhi approaching on May 25th, these resignations have dealt a blow to the Congress party.
