“Good luck and Goodbye Congress,” former Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee chief Sunil Jakhar said on Saturday while announcing his decision to quit the Congress, which had removed from all positions for alleged anti-party activities.

The disgruntled Congress leader, whose decision comes during the party’s three-day Chintan Shivir in Udaipur, went live on his Facebook page to make the announcement.

“It is my parting gift to the party. Good luck and Goodbye Congress,” Jakhar said while announcing that he was parting ways with the Congress.

The former Punjab Congress chief had been upset with the party for serving him a show-cause notice.

The Congress had last month removed him from all the party positions for alleged anti-party activities.

Shortly after Sunil Jakhar announced to quit the Congress, party leader Navjot Singh Sidhu called the former state unit chief “an asset” and told his party not to lose him.  Sidhu further said any differences can be resolved on the table.
