'Can't raise anti-Sanatan slogans', Cong spokersperson Gourav Vallabh quits party


New Delhi, Apr 4 (IANS): Congress Spokesperson, Professor Gourav Vallabh, on Thursday quit the grand old party, saying that he cannot abuse Sanatan Dharma.

Prof Vallabh announced his resignation via his social media handle by posting a quote from the Mahabharata and in his letter, he wrote, “The directionless way in which the Congress party is currently going forward makes me uncomfortable. I cannot support anti-Sanatan slogans nor can I criticize the country's wealth creators day in and day out. Therefore, I am resigning from all positions and the primary membership of the Congress party."

He also said that he was hurt by the party’s stand on the Ram temple in Ayodhya.

Prof Vallabh, who represented the Congress on TV debates on finance and economy related issues, had recently contested the Assembly elections from Udaipur and lost.

    So finally it is clear that it is the Congress who itself is in self destruction mode.... Earlier Sanjay Nirupam, Supriya srinate and now Gaurav Vallabh..... The party leadership must only introspect its stands, instead of blaming BJP/MODI..... When BJP is clear that either hook or crook method it will form the Government. Congress must reform itself...

    Congress Lost one of the best educated guys who speaks truth & answers with logic, he is best suited for prime ministerial candidate or Finance Minister. He is too Good, he follows Dharma from his heart & at the same time he is LLB, CA, Company Secretary, M.com, Ph.D.(UoR, India) and Certified Financial Risk Manager from (GARP, USA).

    Right decision at right time. He has been at the forefront in defending a party without any benefit to himself. He can rest assured that he will be well paid by Sanatani group for towing their line.

    He can join BJP which is welcoming all and it is safer than sorry! But there is a catch....When 'INDIA Block' comes out victorious after declaring results on 4th June, many who jumped ship will come back and all those should be taught a good lesson with a special treatment!

    He can or can not join BJP but the Chamchas of Pappu are blaming BJP for Gaurav Ballabh's resignation. Rohan Gupta left recently due to regular harassment, Sanjay Nirupam has also left (expelled but before that he was preparing to quit), Milind Deora and many more (even Vijender Singh boxer). You charlatans aren't still able to find any problem within the Congress & its leadership. Blaming BJP for everything won't help you dumbos. One joker is saying that when INDI alliance wins on 4 June, have some better jokes plz. More PPL may resign in coming days from this sinking ship of Congress because of failed leadership & no connect with public at ground level.
