The BJP unit in West Bengal claimed that the former Indian skipper was not given his due in Bengal under TMC rule and demanded he should be appointed as the Sheriff of Kolkata.
A day after cricket legend Sourav Ganguly was appointed the brand ambassador of Tripura tourism, BJP tried to showcase the appointment as a 'righting of a wrong' against a son of the soil, while TMC termed it as a normal practice and asked the saffron party not to politicize the selection.
The BJP unit in West Bengal claimed that the former Indian skipper was not given his due in Bengal under TMC rule and demanded he should be appointed as the Sheriff of Kolkata.
"The TMC-led West Bengal government never gave Sourav Ganguly his due respect...the BJP-led Tripura government made him their brand ambassador," BJP state president Sukanta Majumdar said.
The BJP MP also demanded that the former Indian skipper be "appointed the Sheriff of the metropolis".
