Resigning from Assembly as I cannot fulfill duty: Assam MLA

First-time BJP MLA Terash Gowalla Tuesday said he has sent his resignation letter from the Assam Assembly to Chief Minister Sarbananda Sonowal.

The legislator from Duliajan constituency said he has sent his letter to Sonowal, who is the leader of the BJP Legislature Party in the state, on Monday night.

Confirming the development, a senior BJP party official said, "Yes, he has sent the resignation to the CM's office on Monday."
Asked about the reasons for resigning from the house, Gowalla said, "There are various issues. I am not able to fulfill my duties as MLA. So, taking the moral responsibility, I am resigning from the Assembly."
"However, without consulting me, the appointment in the company was made. I am not saying that you (government) give me the post, but at least I should have been consulted."
Asked if there was any possibility of withdrawing the resignation under party pressure, Gowalla said, "I have informed the issues to the CM. If I get a satisfactory answer, I may re-consider it."
