A prominent tribal leader and former MP from Nabarangpur Lok Sabha constituency, Mr. Majhi said that the grand old party "lacks enthusiasm".
In a major jolt to opposition Congress ahead of the panchayat polls due in early 2022, Odisha Pradesh Congress Committee (OPCC) working president and former MP Pradeep Majhi resigned from the party's primary membership on Friday.
The resignation letter was sent to the party's interim president Sonia Gandhi.
"With profound respect and obedience, I beg to state with extreme sorrow and pain that I have decided to resign from the primary membership of the Indian National Congress," he stated in the letter.
