New Delhi: Trinamool Congress MP Rukmini Mallick Thursday resigned from the Rajya Sabha, the fourth TMC MP to do so ever since the Mamata Banerjee-led party was ousted from power in West Bengal.
Mallick met the Rajya Sabha chairman and tendered her resignation.
I do hereby resign from the membership of the Rajya Sabha, which may please be accepted with immediate effect, she said in her resignation letter.
I convey my sincere gratitude to the Deputy Chairman and all functionaries of the Rajya Sabha Secretariat, who extended all help and cooperation during my tenure as a member of the Rajya Sabha, she wrote.
TMC MPs Sukhendu Shekhar Ray, Susmita Dev, and Prakash Chik Baraik resigned from the Upper House earlier.
