Shillong, Sept 13: Quitting Congress by one of the most loyalist congress man Dr DD Lapang has shock everyone in Meghalaya. From the resignation letter it appears that, restriction makes him frustrated and compelled him to quit the Congress Party where he has associated himself for the last four decades.
This is the letter written by Dr DD Lapang to the AICC President it said “ I, am glad that I have the privilege to be in the congress for the last four decades as an eminent member of the Indian National Congress.
During these years, I work devotedly, leaving no stone unturned while performing my service for the party, as a true disciplines congress man and always cooperate with the AICC even to the extent of accepted sacrifices for the sake of unity and strength of the party. In my mind, I have always been thinking that I should be with the Congress for all the times to come.
But lately the AICC have been embarking upon a policy of phasing out of senior and elderly people. In my opinion it means that their services and contribution of the seniors and elderly people is no longer useful to the party.
Since the enthusiasm and the spirit to work for the people is still burning inside me, this restriction make me frustrated and compelled me to be no longer comfortable to be in the party. With my present age and health condition, I have decided to continue to serve the country, my state and its people in the same manner where ever I am.
Therefore, reluctantly and with a heavy hearth, I would like to discontinue my dedication towards the congress party and I tender the resignation with immediate effect”. This was the letter written by Dr DD Lapang to the President of the AICC Mr Rahul Gandhi while resigning from the Congress Party.
