He expressed his inability to advocate ‘anti-Sanatan’ slogans.Gourav Vallabh said in a post on X, “The way Congress party is moving forward directionless today, I do not feel comfortable with it. I cannot raise anti-Sanatana slogans, nor can I abuse the wealth creators of the country. Therefore, I am resigning from all positions and primary membership of the Congress party.”Vallabh’s resignation letter further alleges that the party’s grassroots level has deteriorated, failing to grasp the aspirations of New India.
