BJP changes Tripura CM: Biplab Deb quits, days after meeting Amit Shah, JP Naddai; Manik Saha replaces

In a big surprise ahead of state elections next year, Tripura Chief Minister Biplab Deb submitted his resignation to the Governor on May 14. Deb was accompanied by Union minister and senior BJP leader Bhupender Yadav.

The development came days after Deb met Union Home Minister Amit Shah and BJP national president JP Nadda in Delhi. Tripura is slated to go to polls in 2023.

The development comes amid reports of infighting in the BJP's Tripura unit. Biplab Deb was crowned Chief Minister in 2018 after the BJP defeated the Left Front, ending its 25-year rule in the northeast state.
