"I shaved off my hair as compensation for the misrule of the BJP government. So I am leaving the party and will tell what my next step will be. The type of anarchy and misrule the people of Tripura is witnessing under the BJP rule has moved me and that is the reason I have been a critic of all those wrong deeds and I have been working for the people beyond the party politics." said Das.
"We unknowingly committed a mistake by thinking that Narendra Modi led BJP government could protect us from the misrule of the last government that ruled for 25 years." added Das.
Reportedly, BJP is planning to take disciplinary actions against Das.
Notably, this move by MLA Ashish Das came as a fresh jolt to the BJP in Tripura ahead of the state assembly elections scheduled to be held in 2023.
