: Former Salepur MLA and BJP Cuttack district president Prakash Chandra Behera has resigned from the party.
Behera sent a letter in this regard to BJP State president Manmohan Samal on Thursday.
“I have always tried to do justice to my position and my team has tried to achieve milestones. But I could not give satisfactory results,” he wrote in the resignation letter.
Notably, Behera had successfully contested the 2014 Assembly polls from the Salepur constituency on a Congress ticket. In 2019, he left the Congress and joined the BJP. He also contested from the same constituency that year on a BJP ticket but lost to BJD’s Prashant Behera.
