Kapil is already an Upper House remember but his term will end on July 4th. In order to retain the Rajya Sabha membership, Kapil took this drastic decision to leave Congress.
But Kapil is one of the many Congress veterans who raised the voice against the Gandhi leadership and were deeply upset with the party affairs. Finally Kapil exited Congress having tried all the options and routes.
This is a major setback for Congress as Kapil has been one of the key leaders who was instrumental in decision making. In UPA second term, Kapil was part of the Union Cabinet and that’s how significant he is in the Congress.
