Former Maharashtra Chief Minister and Congress MLA Ashok Chavan quit the party. This development comes days after senior Maharashtra Congress leaders Baba Siddique and Milind Deora quit the grand old party.
Here’s Ashok Chavan’s resignation letter to the Maharashtra Governor.
Responding to the development in the Congress unit of Maharashtra, the Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis said, “I heard about Ashok Chavan from the media. But the only thing I can say now is that several good leaders from Congress are in touch of BJP. Those leaders who are connected with the masses are feeling suffocated in Congress. I am confident that some big faces will join Congress.”
