The All India Congress Committee (AICC) has accepted the resignation of four party leaders including two Vice Presidents of Jammu and Kashmir Pradesh Congress Committee (JKPCC), keeping the gates open for 18 other leaders, who had tendered their resignation along with the ousted leaders.
The 22 leaders from JKPCC had tendered joint resignation in November, 2021, to AICC president Sonia Gandhi.
However, a statement reads that the AICC has accepted the resignation of JKPCC Vice Presidents and Budgam Incharge District president, according to news agency KNO.
Taking cognizance of the resignation tendered by JKPCC Vice Presidents G.M.Saroori, Gulam Nabi Monga, Muhammad Anwar Bhat, the Congress high command decided to accept their resignation, with immediate effect, the statement said, adding that the party high command also accepted the resignation of Incharge DCC President Budgam Zahid Hussain Jan.
Nonetheless, the AICC has remained tight-lipped over the resignation tendered by other JKPCC leaders as there has been no mention of the other leaders including Waqr Rasool, Choudhary Akram, Jugal Kishore Sharma, Dr Manohar Lal Sharma, Naresh Gupta, Muhammad Amin Bhat, Subhash Gupta and others.
Considered as the close aide of former J&K chief minister and AICC leader Ghulam Nabi Azad, the 22 leaders from JKPCC had tendered resignation amid reports that Azad is going to float his new party.
Sources within the party said that the aggrieved leaders were seeking removal of G A Mir as JKPCC President.
