Srinagar: Former minister Imran Raza Ansari on Monday resigned from the post of General Secretary of Peoples Conference (PC).
Ansari, who was a minister in PDP-BJP coalition government in erstwhile state of J&K, joined the PC in November 2018 after resigning from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Taking to micro-blogging site twitter, Ansari said, “As our Party @JKPC_ is growing and lots of leaders have started joining this caravan of change I am requesting my party President @sajadlone to accept my resignation from post of General Secretary effective today.”
Ansari, a prominent Shia leader in the valley, was the first one to rebel against Mehbooba in the party after she was dislodged from power by the BJP which withdrew support from the coalition on June 19, 2018.
