Gourav Vallabh, who was seen as an articulate Congress spokesperson, quit the Congress on Thursday and joined the BJP. Alongwith Gourav, former Bihar Congress president Anil Sharma and RJD leader Upendra Prasad also joined the BJP in the presence of its national general secretary Vinod Tawde.

Gourav Vallabh shared his resignation letter written to Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge on social media platform X. Vallabh said, "I can neither raise anti-Sanatan slogans nor abuse wealth creators day in and day out. Therefore, I resign from all posts and primary membership of the party."
