    MLA from Tripura BJP ally resigns ahead of 2023 assembly elections

    Digital Desk: The Bharatiya Janata Party faced yet another setback in Tripura on Friday as Dhananjoy Tripura, a legislator from the NDA's ally Indigenous People's Front of Tripura (IPFT), tendered his resignation to assembly speaker Ratan Chakraborty.


    While offering his resignation, he was seen being accompanied by royal scion and TIPRA Motha party head Pradyot Kishore Debbarma. The cause of the move is unknown at this time. Tripura won the 2018 assembly polls from the Raimavalley constituency in Dhalai district.


    "IPFT MLA Dhananjoy Tripura submitted his resignation today. I have accepted his resignation and sent it for gazette notification," Chakraborty told reporters.



    He is the second legislator from IPFT to exit the party since last year. A year ago, IPFT legislator Brishaketu Debbarma left the party to join TIPRA Motha. However, the assembly disqualified his membership recently for violating anti-defection law.


    The resignation came less than a month after BJP legislator Burbu Mohan Tripura left the party.



    In the 2018 elections, the BJP won 36 of the state's 60 assembly seats, while the IPFT won eight.


    With the recent resignations, the number of IPFT legislators has decreased to six.
