Former Union minister Kapil Sibal, who resigned from the Congress on Wednesday, said the ideology of the Congress is the ideology of the opposition, and everyone will move forward on the basis of the same.
"I still say that we all hold on to the ideology of Congress which is the ideology of an inclusive India. This is the ideology of the entire opposition and we will move forward on the basis of that," news agency ANI quoted him as saying.
He said the tragedy of the Indian Parliament is that no political party gives liberty to leaders.
"There is no concept of a whip in any other Parliament across the world. We may have a different point of view but we can't express them and are often confined while being in a party," he said.
Sibal, who is part of the G23, a group of senior leaders in the Congress who have been demanding organisational reforms, and has been vocal in his criticism of the party leadership, said he had resigned on May 16. He said he dreams of bringing all opposition parties together in the fight against the BJP in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
Sibal had refused to speak against the Congress after his resignation and said he bears it no ill-will and is not far from the party and its ideology.
