Mollah says he has resigned as CPM whip

Controversial CPM leader Abdur Razzak Mollah on Friday said he had sent his resignation from the post of party whip in the West Bengal Assembly citing “poor health”. “I have sent my resignation to Left Front chairman Biman Bose seven to eight days ago,” Mollah said. He added that he did not know whether his resignation had been accepted. “I live in my native village nowadays. I have to travel a lot to reach the Assembly and my poor health does not permit,” he said. “It requires a lot of work to do in this post and in this health,I cannot,” Mollah said.
