March 25, 2024: Assam Congress MLA Bharat Chandra Narah on Monday resigned from the party after his wife Ranee Narah was denied a ticket for the upcoming Lok Sabha polls.
Bharat Chandra Narah was an MLA from Nowboicha in Lakhimpur district of Assam. A day ago, Narah resigned from the post of the chairman of Assam Congress' media cell.
Ranee Narah was widely considered a strong contender for the ticket in the Lakhimpur Lok Sabha seat in Assam. She had previously won this constituency three times and also served a term in the Rajya Sabha. Additionally, Ranee Narah had held a ministerial position in the former Manmohan Singh-led government.
