Sushmita Dev Resigns from Rajya Sabha, Sparks BJP Speculation

Former Silchar MP and Trinamool Congress leader Sushmita Dev has resigned from the Rajya Sabha, triggering speculation about her political future.

Reports suggest Dev met Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma in New Delhi shortly after submitting her resignation, leading to rumours that she may join the BJP. However, no official confirmation has been made.

Dev, who joined the Trinamool Congress in 2021 after leaving Congress, was a prominent party leader and Rajya Sabha MP. Her resignation comes amid growing concerns within the Trinamool Congress, following the recent departure of another senior Rajya Sabha member, adding to uncertainty over the party’s leadership and future direction.
