Prominent political leader from Barak Valley in Assam, Sushmita Dev arrived at her home constituency Silchar on Thursday.

Sushmita Dev was accorded a warm welcome, following her arrival at the Silchar Airport.

This is Dev’s first visit to Silchar, from where she was an MP earlier, after she quit the Congress and joined the TMC.

Notably, Sushmita Dev joined the Trinamool Congress (TMC) in Kolkata after quitting the Congress on Monday afternoon.

Dev has submitted her resignation letter to All India Congress Committee (AICC) president Sonia Gandhi.

She has resigned from the primary membership of the Congress party.
