Gujarat Congress MLA Arvind Ladani on Wednesday resigned from the Assembly and also the party, becoming the fourth legislator of the opposition outfit to quit in the last three months and giving a fresh jolt to it in the BJP-ruled state ahead of the Lok Sabha polls.
The resignation by the first-time MLA from Manavadar in Junagadh district, who is set to join the BJP, comes on the eve of the entry of Congress' 'Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra' led by its Lok Sabha MP Rahul Gandhi in Gujarat and two days after party stalwart Arjun Modhwadia walked out of the organisation.
