Congress president Rahul Gandhi made his resignation final on Wednesday in a “farewell letter”, which could set the stage for a major churn in the party involving possible resignations of officebearers, reconstitution of the working committee and the installation of a new party chief.
Rahul’s detailed letter slammed the lid on speculation that he might be persuaded to reconsider the decision he announced at a meeting of the CWC on May 25 in the aftermath of a second successive defeat to BJP, with the party winning just 52 Lok Sabha seats.
