Pradyut Bordoloi is a former Assam minister and two-time MP from Nagaon constituency, and his resignation is a setback for Congress with 20 days left to go for the Assembly polls.

In a major setback for the Congress, Pradyut Bordoloi, the party MP from Assam, tendered his resignation on Tuesday ahead of the Assembly elections in Assam next month.

In a letter addressed to Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge, Bordoloi said, “With an overwhelming sense of sadness today, I hereby tender my resignation from all posts, privileges and the primary membership of the Indian National Congress."

A former state cabinet minister and two-time MP from Nagaon constituency, Bordoloi’s resignation came a month after former Assam Congress chief Bhupen Kumar Borah resigned from the party, citing “high-handedness" of Congress leader Gaurav Gogoi.

Congress’ state media department chairman Bedabrata Bora said state party chief Gaurav Gogoi and AICC general secretary in-charge of Assam Jitendra Singh are meeting with Bordoloi over the issue in Delhi.
