AGARTALA, Feb 8 (TIWN): Tripura BJP is now tasting its own medicine introduced in Tripura in 2018 ahead of the Assembly Election. 6 Congress MLAs before 2018 election at a time had joined BJP to strengthen the party and after four years, 3 MLAs now are returning to Congress whereas already two heavyweight MLAs Sudip Roy Barman and Asish Saha have already joined the Congress. BJP’s resigned MLAs Sudip Roy Barman, Asish Saha have joined the Congress party today in New Delhi in the presence of Congress National Leaders Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi. Sudip Barman’s decision to return to Congress is after four years of his political breakup with the party as he served as a BJP MLA in Tripura. In 2017, for the sake of change, under the leadership of Narendra Modi, Sudip Barman along with 5 more MLAs had joined the BJP from Congress.

In last four years, BJP witnessed its massive infighting whereas relation with IPFT has remained very upsetting from time to time. In 2019 Lok Sabha election, IPFT activists faced massive attacks, and vehicles were set on fire by BJP. Right now, BJP’s 3 MLAs have officially resigned from the party.

However, BJP accepted MLAs from Congress but in the case BJP Govt, MLA Asish Das who did not resign from MLA post was sacked which is a contradiction with 2018’s scenario. But MLA Sudip Barman and Asish Saha both have resigned not only from the party but vacated seats without keeping any scope for BJP to extend the suspension drama.
