NEW DELHI: Just a day before the
Congress Working Committee meeting,
Jharkhand Congress president quit his post on Friday.
In his three-page letter to
Rahul Gandhi, former IPS officer
Ajoy Kumar said, “As a proud Indian and one of the youngest winners of Police Galantry award and having wiped out the mafia in Jamshedpur, I can confidently say that the worst criminals look better than some of my colleagues.” Kumar had contested Jamshedpur byelection and became an MP from Jharkhand Vikas Morcha. He joined Congress in August 2014.
Ever since the party’s loss in
Lok Sabha elections, senior Congress leaders from Jharhkhand have been demanding his resignation. In his letter, he accused his colleagues of sabotaging the party for their vested interests.
“Some of our party leaders, the likes of Subodh Kant Sahai, Rameshwar Oraon, Pradeep Balmuchu, Chandreshekhar Dubey, Furqan Ansari and several others have only sought to grab political posts for personal benefits,” he wrote
