Mimi Chakraborty was born in February 1989 in Jalpaiguri, West Bengal. She spent most of her childhood in Arunachal Pradesh's Deomali but later moved back to her ancestral home.
Popular Bengali actor and TMC MP Mimi Chakraborty on Thursday said she has resigned as a parliamentarian, asserting that "politics is not my cup of tea". Mimi Chakraborty, a first-time MP from Jadavpur, went to the state assembly in the afternoon to meet TMC supremo and West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee.
"Today, I met our party chief. I had submitted my resignation to her on February 13. I have understood in all these years that politics is not my cup of tea," she told reporters.
It was, however, not clear whether Banerjee accepted Chakraborty's resignation. Asked why she tendered her resignation to Banerjee and not to the Lok Sabha Speaker as per norms, Chakraborty said, ''Once I get the nod from the TMC, I will submit it to the Speaker.'' The development comes months ahead of the general elections.
According to a report in News18, Mimi Chakraborty also cited "mental torture" and "insults" she faced from fellow party members as the reason she was quitting for good.
