KOHIMA: BJP national spokesperson and former Nagaland minister Mmhonlumo Kikon has resigned from the primary and active membership of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and all party posts on Thursday.
The Nagaland BJP has not yet issued any official statement regarding his resignation. In a resignation letter addressed to the President of the BJP Nagaland state unit, Kikon, a former two-time MLA from the Bhandari assembly constituency in Nagaland, expressed gratitude for the opportunities and responsibilities entrusted to him during his more than ten-year association with the party.
“Since joining the BJP more than a decade ago, I have had the honour of serving the party and contributing to its growth and activities in various capacities and responsibilities entrusted to me. My association with the Party has been a deeply enriching experience, having served as Prabhari (observer) of Mizoram state and also as National Spokesperson,” Kikon said.
He said that the time has come for him to take a step back and re-calibrate his journey. “My decision is guided by the need to explore new avenues of public engagement and policy work, which I believe will allow me to continue contributing to society in different ways,” the Naga leader said. (IANS)
