The same day it was reported that Shiv Sena MLA Abdul Sattar quit the coalition government in Maharashtra after being allotted a junior ministry, Congress MLA Kailash Gorantyal also resigned from party posts for not getting any portfolio in the recent ministry allocation.

An upset MLA Kailash Gorantyal has said he has won elections for Congress even in the difficult times of "Modi wave" and yet he has been denied a government berth for the third time.

Kailash Gorantyal said on Saturday he along with his colleagues are quitting all party posts and have sent their resignation letters to the Maharashtra Congress chief.

"We have sent our resignation to Congress state president. I have been elected for the third time. When there was split in Congress and NCP, I was elected. When there was Modi wave even that time I got elected. And this is the third time. Why this injustice is being done to me? This is not fair. I am not given any portfolio," Kailash Gorantyal said.

The miffed Congress MLA also said, "I along with my other leaders and supporters are giving resignation. We are sending it to Congress state president. I am now getting calls from top leaders asking for the reason behind my resignation but whatever has happened that is not good."

On Saturday, Abdul Sattar was rumoured to have quit the Shiv Sena-NCP-Congress coalition government headed by Uddhav Thackeray after being given a junior portfolio.

However, Shiv Sena denied the claims and said Uddhav Thackeray has not receive any resignation letters.

Abdul Sattar, MLA from Sillod in Aurangabad district, quit the Congress before the assembly elections last year and joined the Shiv Sena.
