Pradyut Bordoloi, while speaking to the reporters, said , “Today, I have abandoned one of the most important principles of my life, and I am not happy with it…. However, I made this decision because I was being insulted on many issues by anyone who approached me from within the Congress Party, especially in the Assam Congress. Even the Congress leadership was not showing sympathy towards me… I have become very lonely because I have been associated with the Congress all my life… But of late, I have been having a lot of difficulty surviving, so I have to make this decision. Yes, I have submitted this resignation letter to the AICC President.”
