250 Congress Workers Resign in West Karbi Anglong
Over 250 members of the Congress party in West Karbi Anglong, India, have resigned.
They are unhappy because the party chose a leader they think is not experienced enough.
They also wanted the party to bring back a former leader named Dr Mansing Rongpi, but the party did not.
The members feel their hard work is not being recognized.
They plan to talk about joining another party after more people resign.
Political experts think this could make the Congress party weaker in the upcoming elections.
Over 250 Congress members resigned in West Karbi Anglong.
Resignations protest the appointment of Augustine Enghee as president.
Members feel seniority was ignored in the leadership decision.
Chatro Teron, General Secretary, led the protest.
