Guwahati, April 8: Abu Saleh Najmuddin, a former minister and senior Congress leader, has been appointed as the Working President of the All India United Democratic Front (AIUDF)’s Central Committee.
This news was confirmed by an official notification issued by the AIUDF leadership on Monday. The appointment is effective immediately. Najmuddin had resigned from the Congress and joined the AIUDF on April 1.
In his resignation letter, he criticised some leaders of the APCC and AICC for deviating from the party’s ideology and accused them of prioritising candidates supported by those he labelled as ‘traitors’ of the Congress party, over the interests of the common people and long-term congressmen.
