After Mukul Roy quits BJP, Rajib Banerjee meets TMC leader triggering speculation of return to old party

Former West Bengal minister Rajib Banerjee met TMC state general secretary Kunal Ghosh triggering speculations of return to his old party.

Kolkata: Bharatiya Janta Party leader and former West Bengal minister Rajib Banerjee met Trinamool Congress (TMC) state general secretary Kunal Ghosh on Saturday amid speculation of return to his old party. Though, Ghosh claimed that it was a 'courtesy meeting'. Rajib Banerjee, who switched over to BJP and had unsuccessfully contested assembly polls on a BJP ticket from Domjur seat, went to Ghosh's residence in the northern part of Kolkata where the two had a meeting for more than 1.5 hours. The development comes a day after BJP national vice president Mukul Roy returned to TMC in the presence of Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee.
