Assam BJP IT convener got boot for lauding SFI win

The Assam BJP IT convenor Suranjan Dutta lost his job for hailing win of an Assamese girl, who happens to be from SFI, in the Jawahar Lal Nehru University (JNU) student body election as the BJP state top brass were aghast even as he was savagely trolled by the BJP supporters.

Mr Dutta, innocuously congratulated Srijoni Bhawa Mahanta, who hails from Assam for winning a councilor post in the JNU election, which was bitterly fought by the  left bloc student union and BJP's student wing ABVP.

The left bloc trounced ABVP in the election and maintained the traditional hold over the JNU.

Although Dutta's congratulatory message was of innocuous tone for a state kin but the saffron brigade did not tolerate and the state top brass shown him the door.

Dutta on Tuesday decided to resign from his post for demoralizing the BJP workers through his FB post.

In his resignation letter to the BJP president Ranjit Kumar Das, Dutta begged apology for causing "hurt" to party workers for the Facebook post.

It may be mentioned that, Srijani Bhaswa Mahanta is the daughter of Assam ADGP Bhaskar Jyoti Mahanta.
