Chandigarh: Former Punjab chief minister Amarinder Singh resigned from the Congress on Tuesday.
He sent a seven-page resignation letter to party president Sonia Gandhi, sources said.
“Sidhu’s only claim to fame was that he would abuse me and my government…he was patronised by Rahul and Priyanka, while you chose to turn a blind eye to shenanigans of this gentleman who was aided and abetted by Harish Rawat, perhaps most dubious individual,” the Captain said in in his letter to the Congress President.
Singh had quit as the Punjab chief minister in September amid a bitter power tussle with state Congress chief Navjot Sidhu. A few days ago, Singh had dismissed reports of back channel talks with the Congress as “incorrect”, saying the time for rapprochement was over and his decision to leave the grand old party was final.
He has indicated that he will float a political party ahead of Assembly polls in Punjab.
