The Tripura speaker said after examining all relevant papers and documents and petition of BJP Chief Whip Kalyani Roy, it seems a fit case of disqualification under the Tenth schedule.
Tripura Assembly Speaker Ratan Chakraborty on Wednesday disqualified BJP MLA Ashis Das, who joined the Trinamool Congress on October 31 last year, under the anti-defection law (the Tenth Schedule of the Constitution).
The speaker said after examining all relevant papers and documents and petition of BJP Chief Whip Kalyani Roy, it seems a fit case of disqualification under the Tenth schedule.
"With the disqualification, Das would not be entitled to get any facilities, allowance and pension. Despite many letters and communications from the state assembly secretariat, he did not respond to any of the letters and communication," Mr Chakraborty told reporters at Agartala.
Mr Das had earlier alleged that the governance in Tripura is worse than the British rule.
