Dilip Sarkar (1958 – April 1, 2019)[1] was an Indian politician from the state of Tripura. In 2013 assembly elections, he represented Badharghat constituency in West Tripura district in Tripura Legislative Assembly.[2][3]
In 2016, he was one of the six MLAs from Indian National Congress who joined All India Trinamool Congress, due to unhappiness towards party because of allying Communist Party of India (Marxist) in 2016 West Bengal Legislative Assembly election.[4]
In August 2017, he joined Bharatiya Janata Party after they cross voted against the party lines in 2017 Indian presidential election.[5]
