Congress denies rumours of Kamal Nath resigning as MP party President

Following the party’s defeat in the most recent assembly election against the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Kamal Nath was rumored to have resigned from his position as president of the Madhya Pradesh party. However, the Congress denied these reports on Thursday.

According to earlier reports, Kamal Nath submitted his resignation as the president of the Madhya Pradesh Congress.

Notably, Nath met with senior leaders in Delhi on Tuesday, including Mallikarjun Kharge, the chief of the Congress party.

Following the party’s defeat in the most recent assembly election against the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Kamal Nath was rumored to have resigned from his position as president of the Madhya Pradesh party. However, the Congress denied these reports on Thursday.

The BJP, which is currently in power and has 163 of the 230 assembly seats in the state, defeated the Congress in the Madhya Pradesh election. In the polls conducted on November 17, the Congress bagged second place with 66 seats.

Following Congress’s loss in the polls, Kamal Nath had urged party members not to let the outcome depress them.

Rather, he asked them to get back together, concentrate, and get ready for the Lok Sabha elections, which are just a few months away.

“We have lost this (assembly) election, but I remember that in 1977 also we lost (Lok Sabha polls) more badly than this. At that time, our top leaders like Indira Gandhi and Sanjay Gandhi, too, lost,” he had said.
