New Delhi, Oct19: On Tuesday, former BJP leader and Union Minister Babul Supriyo formally submitted his resignation as a BJP MP from the house to the Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla.
“My heart is heavy as I had begun my political career with the BJP. I thank the PM, party chief, and Amit Shah. They showed confidence in me. I had left politics wholeheartedly. I thought that if I am not a part of the party, I should not keep any seat for myself,” he said after meeting Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla.
The move comes after Babul Supriyo resigned from BJP in August as minister of state for Environment, Forest and Climate Change, following the Union Cabinet reshuffle and joined the TMC on September. On October 1, Supriyo shared a letter that he wrote to the Lok Sabha speaker seeking an appointment to meet him for an urgent matter.
