The Congress too issued a statement confirming Kumar’s return to the party. A release by AICC General Secretary KC Venugopal read, “Hon’ble Congress President has approved the proposal for the re-joining of Dr. Ajoy Kumar, EX-MP and former President, Jharkhand PCC, to the Congress party.”
Kumar wrote, “Amid a health, farmers, unemployment and economic crisis, it is Shri @RahulGandhi & Smt. Sonia Gandhi who have been steadfast in their support for the people and idea of India. I really admire this tenacity and they have inspired me to come back to @INCIndia again.”
