A day after resigning from the BJP, Lok Sabha MP Ram Prasad Sarmah Sunday said he may return to the party and contest the Lok Sabha polls if Prime Minister Narendra Modi "requests" him.
BJP sources said the central leadership is yet to accept Sarmah's resignation and asked the state unit to reconsider the panel of candidates, which did not include the parliamentarian from Tezpur.
"After my resignation, parties such as the TMC, the NPP, the Congress and others have contacted me to join. However, I am not interested to join anyone at this moment.
