Congress Assam unit President Ripun Bora resigned on Sunday, taking moral responsibility to the party s defeat in the Assembly elections.
Bora, who is a Rajya Sabha member, himself also lost the election in the Gohpur Assembly seat to the Bharatiya Janata Party s Utpal Borah by a margin of 29,294 votes.
In his resignation letter to Congress interim President Sonia Gandhi, Bora said that taking the responsibility for the party s humiliating defeat in the Assam Assembly election, he is stepping down from his post. I am extremely saddened and disheartened to inform you that despite my immense hard work, we were unable to combat the divisive and communal politics played by the BJP and RSS. Despite all the odds, I did the best in my capacity to revive the party during the last four years as President of Assam PCC, the 65-year-old leader said in his resignation letter.
