Sonia Gandhi accepts resignation of PC Chacko, Subhash Chopra
New Delhi/UNI: Congress president Sonia Gandhi on Wednesday accepted the resignations of PC Chacko and Subhash Chopra as the AICC in-charge for Delhi and DPCC chief respectively, and appointed Shaktisinh Gohil as the interim in-charge of Delhi.
"The Congress president has accepted the resignations of PC Chacko, AICC in-charge for Delhi, and Subhash Chopra, president of the Delhi Pradesh Congress Committee, with immediate effect," AICC general secretary K C Venugopal said.
Venugopal said that the Congress president has appointed Shaktisinh Gohil as the interim AICC in-charge for Delhi along with his present assignment of Bihar.
"The party appreciates the contributions of outgoing AICC in-charge for Delhi P C Chacko and president of the Delhi Pradesh Congress committee Subhash Chopra," Venugopal said.
PC Chacko had earlier in the day sent his resignation to the Congress president after the party's debacle in the assembly polls in Delhi, where it drew a blank.
Subhash Chopra had sent his resignation to the Congress chief on Tuesday.
In the results of the assembly polls in Delhi, the Congress failed to open its account while the BJP won just eight seats in the 70-member state assembly.
