Internal Strife: Assam Congress Leader Resigns Amidst Unrest

In a surprising turn of events, Assam Pradesh Congress Committee chief Bhupen Kumar Borah has resigned from his post, citing unresolved dissatisfaction with the party's internal decision-making. His resignation came despite praise from Congress MP Gaurav Gogoi, who lauded him as a 'strong Congress leader' and an 'asset' to the party.

Borah's resignation has sparked speculation about internal strife within the Assam Congress unit, highlighting discomfort that originated from the Behali episode. Borah hinted at issues with the party's handling of the Majuli yatra, questioning the group’s future.

Even as Rahul Gandhi and other senior party members tried to smooth over grievances, holding marathon discussions with Borah, the resignation underscores deeper challenges the party faces in Assam. Borah avoided elaborating immediately but indicated he would provide details in due course.
