There is no leader and no democracy in the Congress party said PC Chacko the senior Congress leader from Kerala. Senior Congress leader PC Chacko today resigned from the Congress party. “I have quit Congress and sent my resignation to party’s interim chief Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi Chacko said while interacting with reporters.

His resignation comes as a shock and severe set back to the 100 years old party which is struggling to elect a leader.

Chacko cited the factionalism within the party and said that it had become impossible for him to continue in Congress. He also said that Congress has been working as a headless party and has been continuing without a president for over a year.

He said that there are two groups in the party and there is no democracy.

The Congress, he said, has not been able to find a president for over a year. He also said that nobody is questioning the party leadership including Rahul Gandhi.

Congress is a great tradition. Being a Congressman is a prestigious thing but today in Kerala nobody can be a Congressman. One can belong to either ‘I group’ or ‘A group’. So I decided to call it a day.

High Command is a mute witness to this disaster and there’s no remedy,” Chacko said. He also said that the Congress has been diminishing every passing day and his resignation is a mark of his protest against the grand old party.
