His departure adds to the growing list of Congress leaders stepping away from the party, raising concerns about its internal dynamics and future prospects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a candid social media post, Vallabh expressed profound discomfort with the current trajectory of the Congress party. He lamented the &#8220;directionless path&#8221; the party seemed to be taking, citing issues such as its stance on &#8220;anti-Sanatan slogans&#8221; and frequent criticisms of the country&#8217;s wealth creators. Vallabh&#8217;s resignation underscores a deep-seated unease with the party&#8217;s ideological positioning and messaging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In his resignation letter addressed to Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge, Vallabh bared his emotions, stating, &#8220;I am feeling emotional. My heart is heavy.&#8221; He emphasized the importance of transparency and truthfulness in his decision, refusing to compromise his principles for the sake of political expediency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"hi\" dir=\"ltr\">\u0915\u093e\u0902\u0917\u094d\u0930\u0947\u0938 \u092a\u093e\u0930\u094d\u091f\u0940 \u0906\u091c \u091c\u093f\u0938 \u092a\u094d\u0930\u0915\u093e\u0930 \u0938\u0947 \u0926\u093f\u0936\u093e\u0939\u0940\u0928 \u0939\u094b\u0915\u0930 \u0906\u0917\u0947 \u092c\u0922\u093c \u0930\u0939\u0940 \u0939\u0948,\u0909\u0938\u092e\u0947\u0902 \u092e\u0948\u0902 \u0916\u093c\u0941\u0926 \u0915\u094b \u0938\u0939\u091c \u092e\u0939\u0938\u0942\u0938 \u0928\u0939\u0940\u0902 \u0915\u0930 \u092a\u093e \u0930\u0939\u093e.\u092e\u0948\u0902 \u0928\u093e \u0924\u094b \u0938\u0928\u093e\u0924\u0928 \u0935\u093f\u0930\u094b\u0927\u0940 \u0928\u093e\u0930\u0947 \u0932\u0917\u093e \u0938\u0915\u0924\u093e \u0939\u0942\u0902 \u0914\u0930 \u0928\u093e \u0939\u0940 \u0938\u0941\u092c\u0939-\u0936\u093e\u092e \u0926\u0947\u0936 \u0915\u0947 \u0935\u0947\u0932\u094d\u0925 \u0915\u094d\u0930\u093f\u090f\u091f\u0930\u094d\u0938 \u0915\u094b \u0917\u093e\u0932\u0940 \u0926\u0947 \u0938\u0915\u0924\u093e.\u0907\u0938\u0932\u093f\u090f \u092e\u0948\u0902 \u0915\u093e\u0902\u0917\u094d\u0930\u0947\u0938 \u092a\u093e\u0930\u094d\u091f\u0940 \u0915\u0947 \u0938\u092d\u0940 \u092a\u0926\u094b\u0902 \u0935 \u092a\u094d\u0930\u093e\u0925\u092e\u093f\u0915 \u0938\u0926\u0938\u094d\u092f\u0924\u093e \u0938\u0947 \u0907\u0938\u094d\u0924\u0940\u092b\u093c\u093e \u0926\u0947 \u0930\u0939\u093e\u0939\u0942\u0902 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Xp9nFO80I6\">pic.twitter.com\/Xp9nFO80I6<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Prof. Gourav Vallabh (@GouravVallabh) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/GouravVallabh\/status\/1775717697399189704?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"noopener\">April 4, 2024<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As a finance professor turned national spokesperson for the Congress, Vallabh expressed his growing discomfort with the party&#8217;s recent stance on various issues. He particularly highlighted the party&#8217;s silence on statements perceived as &#8220;anti-Sanatan&#8221; by its alliance partners, a stance that clashed with his personal and professional beliefs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vallabh&#8217;s departure comes hot on the heels of boxer Vijender Singh&#8217;s exit from the Congress to join the ruling BJP, further exacerbating the party&#8217;s woes. The trend of prominent Congress leaders leaving ahead of the Lok Sabha elections signals a deepening crisis within the party ranks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Mumbai Congress&#8217;s recent expulsion of former MP Sanjay Nirupam over issues of indiscipline and dissent adds another layer to the party&#8217;s troubles. Nirupam&#8217;s criticism of the party&#8217;s leadership in Maharashtra further underscores the internal fissures within the Congress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/thenews21.com\/good-to-see-such-promptness-by-the-party-sanjay-nirupam-reacts-to-expulsion-with-sarcasm\"><strong>Also Read:<\/strong> \u201cGood to See Such Promptness by the Party\u201d \u2013 Sanjay Nirupam Reacts to Expulsion with Sarcasm<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>X: @the_news_21 Gourav Vallabh, the National spokesperson of the Congress party, sent shockwaves through the political landscape with his resignation from the party&#8217;s primary membership on Thursday morning.
