The Bharatiya Janata Party’s One Man-One Post had pushed the party’s state general secretary Kishore Barman to resign from his post to continue as an MLA from Nalchar assembly constituency.
While tendering his resignation with the party president Rajib Bhattacharjee, Barman underlined the party’s principle of One man-One post and stated, “As the party endorses the ‘one man, one post’ principle, it will not be wise for me to retain two posts. Therefore, as a soldier of the party, I want to quit as the general secretary.”
Barman, who was engaged in organisational work in West Bengal for a considerable time, contested from 21-Nalchar constituency in the 2023 assembly elections and was elected as an MLA. He was made the party general secretary for Tripura in July 2021.
“I think it is the right time to quit the party post and concentrate on the welfare of the people who elected me,” he said.
