Bhupen Kumar Borah Resigns: A Political Shakeup in Assam

In a significant political shift in Assam, Bhupen Kumar Borah, the former state unit chief of Congress, has resigned from his position. According to sources, Borah has submitted his resignation to Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge.

In his resignation letter, Borah alleged that the party leadership has consistently ignored him, failing to recognize his contributions to the state unit. This move comes just ahead of the Assembly polls, posing a challenge for Congress in Assam.

Borah, a seasoned politician, served as the president of the Assam Congress unit from 2021 to 2025. He was replaced by Gaurav Gogoi last year and has been a two-time legislator, underscoring his experience in the political arena.
