Former Cortalim MLA and Minister for Forests and Environment, Alina Saldanha, has resigned from the primary membership of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP). 

In her resignation letter to AAP Goa president Amit Palekar, Saldanha mentioned that her decision is based on the observation that the functioning of AAP does not align with her thought process on issues related to the state of Goa. She also emphasized the need for the party’s operations to focus more on matters concerning the welfare of Goa and its citizens.
