BJP objects to Speaker accepting Sharad Kol's resignation

Amid high profile political drama, BJP MLA from Beohari, Sharad Kol's resignation triggered another row when Speaker NP Prajapati accepted the same on Friday. The Speaker said that he found Kol's resignation dated March 6 on Tuesday and decided to accept it as Kol did not meet him in person. BJP however, opposed the decision saying Kol had on March 16 written to the Speaker that he has not resigned.
