"Selfish Nature": Assam Congress Slams Top Leader Who Joined Trinamool
NDTV
Ending his four-decade-old relationship with the party, Ripun Bora joined the Mamata Banerjee-led Trinamool Congress on Sunday.
The Assam Congress on Monday hit out at former state unit chief Ripun Bora for "showing selfish nature", a day after he quit the party, accusing several of its leaders of working for the BJP.
Congress Legislative Party leader Debabrata Saikia came down heavily on Mr Bora and said that instead of helping the party which is at a critical juncture, the former MP has shown his "selfish nature" for his personal interests.
Mr Saikia said that it was the Congress that helped Mr Bora shape his political career, and it was only unfair on his part to leave the party, particular at a time when it needs veteran leaders to stay united.
Ripun Bora, in his resignation letter addressed to Congress president Sonia Gandhi, cited infighting within the Assam Congress as the primary reason for his desertion.
He took to X to share his distress, describing the situation as "painful to watch" especially since he was in the US and unable to personally intervene.
