In a significant political development, Assam Congress leader Bismita Gogoi on January 27 tendered her resignation from primary membership of the party.
Angkita Dutta Set To Switch Over To BJP
In a letter to Assam Pradesh Congress Committee (APCC) president Bhupen Kumar Borah, Bismita Gogoi mentioned that she would resign from all party posts assigned to her and the primary membership of the Indian National Congress.
This comes after reports emerged that she would be joining the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) alongside former Youth Congress president Angkita Dutta.
All Assam Students’ Union (AASU) Dipanka Nath and former AASU vice-president Prakash Das are also likely to join the BJP.
In her letter to Bhupen Kumar Borah, Bismita Gogoi wrote, “With regret I would like to Inform you that I have decided to resign from all the party posts assigned upon me as well as from the primary membership of Indian National Congress party due to personal reasons.”
