LONE INLD MLA ABHAY CHAUTALA RESIGNS FROM HARYANA ASSEMBLY

Indian

National Lok Dal (INLD) leader Abhay Singh Chautala, who was his party’s lone representative in the 90-member Haryana Assembly, on Wednesday resigned as an MLA over the three new Central farm laws. “I decided I cannot sit in the Assembly with those who bring resolutions favouring these laws," Chautala said, referring to the BJP-led government's earlier move of bringing in a resolution backing the Centre's three contentious farm laws. Abhay, the younger son of INLD president and former CM Om Prakash Chautala, drove to the state assembly complex with his supporters in his green tractor to submit his resignation. "Abhay Chautala, who represents the Ellenabad constituency, came to me personally and tendered his resignation and I have accepted it with immediate effect," Speaker Gian Chand Gupta said, adding his resignation letter was correct in all technical aspects. UP BJP MLA ANNOUNCES RESIGNATION: BJP MLA from the Meerapur Assembly seat in Muzaffarnagar, Avtar Singh Bhadana, has announced his resignation from the party protesting against the Centre's stand on the three farm laws. Bhadana, a former MP from Meerut and Faridabad, has been sulking of late and had started visiting the protesting farmers across Uttar Pradesh.
