Assam CM Tarun Gogoi to submit his resignation tomorrow
  • 5 years ago
Assam chief minister Tarun Gogoi will resign from his post on Thursday (22 May, 2014).

Gogoi, earlier, had attributed a bit of "arrogance and complacency" within himself and the Congress for the party's poor show in the the Lok Sabha elections in Assam.
Gogoi arrived in New Delhi on Tuesday to offer his resignation to Congress president Sonia Gandhi and seek her directives on his future role.

Gogoi's decision comes after dissidents once again called for change of leadership following the party's debacle in the Lok Sabha polls. The Congress won just three Lok Sabha seats in Assam.

A group of rebel ministers and legislators have carried out a signature campaign for the leadership change. Pro-Gogoi ministers have countered this by asking the chief minister to form a new cabinet.
