Another Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader resigned from the party on Tuesday after being denied a ticket in the upcoming Assembly polls in the state. Santosh Yadav, BJP's state unit vice president, sent her resignation letter to the state party chief.

In her resignation letter to the state BJP chief, Yadav stated that she was stepping down from all party posts and her primary membership. 

Yadav expressed her disappointment, highlighting that grassroots leaders who have shown loyalty and dedication to the party are being overlooked in favour of individuals who have neither contributed to the party's work nor served their assembly constituencies. She termed the situation as unfortunate, noting that it has led to growing dissatisfaction and disillusionment among party workers. "My dedication to the Bharatiya Janata Party has always been unwavering and I have worked following the principles and policies of the party in every situation. But, with great sadness, I have to say that within the party, especially those workers are being neglected who worked with loyalty to strengthen the party at the grassroot level," she wrote.
