Discontentment is brewing in the camp of the Trinamool Congress’ (TMC) Assam unit as the general secretary of the party on Friday submitted his resignation to president Ripun Bora.

The general secretary of the TMC’s state unit in Assam, Chitta Ranjan Pal submitted his resignation from the post citing displeasure with the way the party is headed under Ripun Bora.

This comes after the party rang the changes to find its feet in the state, appointing Bora as the president after he quit Congress.

It may be noted that similar to Bora, Pal had resigned from Congress to join TMC in Assam in April, this year.

Pal is thought to have been very close to Bora and his resignation has created a stir inside the party.

Apart from Bora, Chitta Ranjan Pal also forwarded his resignation to TMC’s Rajya Sabha MP Sushmita Dev.
