News Desk: BJP MLA from Kaliaganj, Soumen Roy rejoined TMC on Saturday. He was welcomed by senior party leader Partha Chatterjee.
Partha Chatterjee said “BJP MLA Soumen Roy is rejoining us for the development of Bengal and North Bengal”
“He wants to keep the culture and heritage of Bengal intact” he added.
Roy, after rejoining, said “I had to contest from Kaliaganj on the BJP ticket due to some circumstances. But my soul and heart belong to TMC. I joined the party again to support CM Mamata Banerjee’s efforts”
“I am apologetic to party for the time I was not here” he added.
Earlier the exit of Tanmoy Ghosh and Biswajit Das, reduced Bengal BJP’s strength to 72. And now with the exit of Roy, it reduced to 71. In the last four weeks, four BJP MLAs have switched to the TMC.
