Ghulam Nabi Azad, who was a Union Minister in the governments of Indira Gandhi, Rajiv Gandhi, PV Narasimha Rao and Dr. Manmohan Singh, finally left the Congress. In recent months, after Kapil Sibal, Ghulam Nabi Azad is the second big leader who has said goodbye to the Congress. Speculation was rife about whether former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Ghulam Nabi would remain in the Congress since the party did not send him to the Rajya Sabha again and Prime Minister Modi praised him inside the House on the occasion of his farewell.

Ghulam Nabi Azad was the most prominent face of the G-23 group of Congress, which complained to Sonia Gandhi about Rahul Gandhi’s leadership style. Read, how Ghulam Nabi surrounded Rahul Gandhi in his five-page resignation, which childish act he mentioned and pointed to what rigged inside the Congress .. “The remote control model that destroyed the integrity of the UPA government, the same model now was implemented in Congress also. You have leadership in name only, all important decisions are either taken by Rahul Gandhi, or in worse case by his security personnel and PAs”.

Ghulam Nabi Azad in his resignation letter targeted Rahul Gandhi fiercely. He said that the situation was weakened by the behavior of Rahul Gandhi and admitted that the Congress’s situation has worsened after 2019. He alleged that a symbolic funeral procession in my name was taken out in Jammu on the instructions of the faction running the Congress.

He also questioned the party’s prospects. Azad said that for the last eight years, the leadership of the party was in the hands of a non-serious person. He said that the party leadership should have done the Congress Jodo Yatra across the country before undertaking the Bharat Jodo Yatra. He alleged that a faction running it within the Congress is now protected. A group sitting at 24 Akbar Road is getting the lists signed. The Congress leadership is solely responsible for the massive rigging happening inside the party.

He said that after 2014, under the leadership of Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi, the Congress lost two Lok Sabha elections. From 2014 to 2022, 39 out of 49 assembly elections were also lost. Today the Congress is in power in only two states, in two other states it is running the government with coalition.
