Congress MP Rao Inderjit Singh, who was recently in the limelight for demanding a probe into the land deals of Sonia Gandhi's son-in-law Robert Vadra, today said he was bidding goodbye to "Congress politics".

Addressing a rally, the member of Lok Sabha from Gurgaon said he would not contest the next elections from Congress as he was upset with the"existing circumstances" in the party.

"I have been in the Congress for 35 years, but under the existing circumstances, I won't contest elections from the Congress party, and I also bid bye to Congress politics," the 63-year-old leader said.
