Instead of taking his guidance, Cong snaps 56 year-long relation with Karan Singh 10/27/2023 10:47:50 PM Early Times Report Jammu, Oct 27: Instead of convincing veteran politician Dr. Karan Singh to guide the party at this crucial time, the Congress leadership accepted the request of the former Sadr-e-Rasayat of the erstwhile state of Jammu and Kashmir to relieve him from the new responsibility of the party. In an official communique, the J&K unit of the party stated that Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge has accepted the request of veteran leader Dr Karan Singh, with regard to relieving him from the executive Committee of the JKPCC. In a communication to Dr. Karan Singh, the AICC General Secretary ( Organisation) KC Venugopal has conveyed the decision of the Congress President to Dr. Karan Singh in this regard, in response to a letter from Dr. Singh, requesting the Congress president to relieve him of the executive of the Jammu and Kashmir Pradesh Congress Committee (JKPCC). By accepting the request of Dr. Karan Singh, Congress leadership has snapped 56 years long relations with the veteran politician who served the country as Union Minister and remained a member of the party's highest decision-making body the Congress Working Committee (CWC) for many years. Two days after he was nominated as a member of the executive committee of the Jammu and Kashmir Pradesh Congress Committee (JKPCC) veteran politician and former Sadr-e-Rasayat of the erstwhile state of Jammu and Kashmir Dr. Karan Singh ruled out accepting new responsibility in the grand-old-party any more. Dr. Karan Singh has asked that his name be dropped from the 22-member executive committee of the party's Jammu and Kashmir unit. In a letter, the 92-year-old requested All India Congress Committee (AICC) president Mallikarjun Kharge to drop his name. “I had joined Congress in 1967. But in the last 8-10 years, I'm no longer in Parliament, I was dropped from the working committee. Yes, I'm in Congress but there's no contact, nobody asks me anything. I do my work. My relations with the party are almost zero now”, Dr. Singh said in September 2022.   Share This News with Your Friends on Social Network     Comment on this Story
