News Desk: Former Congress Lok Sabha member from Bengal and son of former President Pranab Mukherjee, Abhijit Mukherjee joined the TMC on Monday. He was welcomed by minister Partha Chatterjee and the party’s leader in the Lok Sabha, Sudip Bandopadhyay.
He said “I am grateful to Mamata Didi and Abhishek Babu for letting me in. Mamata Banerjee stopped the BJP in Bengal. I feel that under her leadership, it may become possible in India as well”
“I am joining the TMC as a primary member. Had I done so earlier, people would have thought that I have an eye on some prime position. They cannot say so now. Let the TMC utilise my services in whatever way it wants. I am still active” he added.
