Trinamool Congress (TMC) Rajya Sabha MP and famous Tollywood actress Koel Mallick has resigned from her post. He has expressed his desire to leave the post by submitting his resignation to the Chairman of Rajya Sabha. However, he has not given any reason for resignation in his letter.

This decision has come at a time when the party is already facing political pressure due to internal discontent and continuous resignations of leaders. In such a situation, Koel Mallik’s resignation is being considered as another big blow for Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee and TMC. Let us tell you that a day before, Mamata Banerjee’s close aide and veteran leader Madan Mitra also distanced himself from the party and joined the rebel group. This was considered a big blow for Mamta.

Resignation sent to Rajya Sabha Chairman

Rajya Sabha Chairman C.P. In her letter sent to Radhakrishnan, Koyal Mallik only wrote that she was resigning from her post and it should be accepted. He also expressed his gratitude to all the members and officials of Rajya Sabha for their cooperation and support.

Who is Koel Mallik?

Koyal Mallik’s real name is Rukmini Mallik. She is one of the popular actresses of Bengali film industry i.e. Tollywood and is often known as ‘Tolly-Queen’. After a long and successful career in films, she also entered politics and reached Rajya Sabha on behalf of Trinamool Congress. Considering his popularity, the party considered him an important face at both cultural and political levels.

Number of MPs resigning from TMC reaches four

Before this, Sukhendu Shekhar Roy, Sushmita Dev and Prakash Chik Baraik have also resigned from Rajya Sabha. These leaders later distanced themselves from all the posts of the party and joined BJP. Now after the resignation of Koel Mallik, new speculations are being made in political circles.

Will Koel Mallik join BJP?

However, till now neither Koel Mallik nor the BJP has issued any official statement regarding his joining the party. In such a situation, it remains only a matter of political speculation.

Impact on TMC’s Rajya Sabha strength
