New Delhi, February 16 In a major setback for the Congress ahead of the Assam assembly elections, the party's former state unit chief, Bhupen Kumar Borah, has resigned, according to sources.
Sources said Borah has sent his resignation letter to Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge. In his letter to Kharge, he claimed that he was being "ignored" by the party leadership and was not being given the recognition he deserved within the state unit.
Borah was the president of the Assam Congress unit from 2021 to 2025 and was replaced by Gaurav Gogoi last year. He has been a two-term legislator in Assam.
