“I am not able to feel comfortable with the directionless way in which the Congress Party is moving forward today. I can neither raise anti-Sanatan slogans nor abuse the wealth creators of the country in the morning and evening. That is why I I am resigning from all posts and primary membership of Congress Party,” Vallabh wrote in a tweet on ‘X’.

In a resignation letter adressed to party president Mallikarjun Kharge in hindi, Vallabh expressed, "I am emotional. My mind is disturbed. I want to say a lot, write a lot, and tell a lot. But my values prevent me from saying anything that may cause distress to others."

कांग्रेस पार्टी आज जिस प्रकार से दिशाहीन होकर आगे बढ़ रही है,उसमें मैं ख़ुद को सहज महसूस नहीं कर पा रहा.मैं ना तो सनातन विरोधी नारे लगा सकता हूं और ना ही सुबह-शाम देश के वेल्थ क्रिएटर्स को गाली दे सकता.इसलिए मैं कांग्रेस पार्टी के सभी पदों व प्राथमिक सदस्यता से इस्तीफ़ा दे रहाहूं pic.twitter.com/Xp9nFO80I6 — Prof. Gourav Vallabh (@GouravVallabh) April 4, 2024

Reflecting on the trajectory of his tenure, he said, "When I joined the Congress party, I believed that Congress is the oldest party in the country. Where the youth, intellectual people, and their ideas are valued. But in the last few years, I have felt that the party is unable to adjust itself with the youth who have new ideas. The party's ground-level connection has completely broken, which is not at all understanding the aspirations of the new India," Vallabh added.
