His resignation comes soon after top ministers like Ramesh Pokhriyal and Dr Harsh Vardhan resigned as Cabinet ministers. Below is what Supriyo wrote on his ouster from govt: Yes, when there is smoke there must be a fire somewhere Not being able to take phone calls of my friends in the media who cares for me hence let me spell it out myself.. Yes, I have been asked to resign & I have !! I thank Honble Prime Minister for giving me the privilege to serve my country as a Member of his Council of Ministers.. I am extremely happy that I go today without a spot of corruption on me, having served my constituency with all my might & having enjoyed their cindiendence when Asansol voted me back as their MP once again, with triple the Margin in 2019 again My bestest of wishes to my colleagues, whose names I can’t spell out but by now everyone is aware, will be sworn in as Hon’ble Ministers from Bengal. I am surely SAD for myself but very HAPPY for them More power to all of them.
