A veteran Congress politician in Haryana has quit the party after nearly two decades, delivering harsh criticism about dynastic control and internal dysfunction. Sampat Singh, elected to the state assembly six times, submitted his departure notice to party president Mallikarjun Kharge while declaring he had lost confidence in the organization's capacity to serve residents of his state.

The former cabinet minister accused leadership of prioritizing family interests over merit and blamed factional conflicts for undermining both his career and the party's electoral prospects. He cited multiple senior figures who departed after what he termed mistreatment, with several joining rival political groups. Singh highlighted the 2024 assembly elections as evidence of self-inflicted damage, arguing that internal betrayal cost Congress victory despite favorable early polling. He specifically referenced how Dalit voters shifted away following perceived slights against another prominent leader.

Singh joined Congress back in 2009 following extensive public service and won five consecutive races from Fatehabad before party orders relocated him to Nalwa. Despite this track record, he received no ministerial portfolio or organizational role after that election year. His resignation letter asserted the party had abandoned its ethical foundation.
