Congress MLA from Fatehgarh Sahib assembly segment in Punjab, Kuljit Singh Nagra, Monday resigned as All India Congress Committee (AICC) secretary, saying he was "personally affected" by party president Rahul Gandhi's decision to quit.
With this, he joined a list of Congress leaders who have resigned from party posts over the last few days in solidarity with Gandhi.
In his resignation letter to Gandhi, Nagra said, "I am personally affected by your decision to not continue as the AICC president... I firmly believe that the perceived defeat is our collective responsibility and your firm decision does not permit me to continue as secretary, AICC."
