Days after Delhi Congress chief Arvinder Singh Lovely's exit, two former MLAs resign

Days after Delhi Congress chief Arvinder Singh Lovely resigned, two more party members have announced their exit, dealing a major blow to the grand-old party amidst Lok Sabha polls.

Former MLAs Naseeb Singh and Neeraj Basoya tendered their resignation on May 1, citing the alliance with the Aam Aadmi Party.

Naseeb Singh also expressed his anguish over the appointment of Davinder Yadav as the Delhi Congress chief.

"Today, you have appointed Davinder Yadav as DPCC Chief. He as AICC (In-Charge Punjab) has run a campaign in Punjab solely based on attacking Arvind Keiriwal's false agenda and today, in Delhi he will be mandated to praise and support AAP and its Chief Arvind Kejriwal. Being deeply pained and humiliated at the recent developments in the Party, I resign from the party," Singh in his resignation letter to Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge.
