New Delhi: Veteran leader and former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Ghulam Nabi Azad on Friday resigned from the Congress party, breaking his 50-year-old relationship with the party. After this, there is panic in the country's oldest political party 'Congress' and the period of rhetoric has started. Senior Congress leader and Lok Sabha MP Manish Tewari has also expressed his opinion on the resignation of 'Azad'. Tewari has said that there seems to be a rift in the coordination between India and Congress and this rift existed since 1885.

He said that, two years ago, 23 of us had written to Sonia Gandhi that the condition of the party was worrying and it should be taken seriously. After that letter, Congress lost all the assembly elections. Tewari said that, if Congress and India think alike, then it seems that either of them has started thinking differently. He said, 'It seems that there has been a rift in the coordination between India and the Congress, which existed since 1885. Introspection needed to be done. I think this situation would not have happened had it been agreed in the meeting held at Sonia Gandhi's house on December 20, 2020.'

Azad accused former Congress President Rahul Gandhi of immature and childish behavior and said that now Sonia Gandhi has become a nominal leader, because all the decisions of the party are taken by Rahul Gandhi's security guard and PA. Ghulam Nabi Azad had given a series of grievances in his five-page resignation letter to Congress President Sonia Gandhi. Azad, 73, said he was taking this step with a heavy heart. He said that Congress has succumbed to the BJP at the national level and regional parties at the state level.
