The Hindu
“Touched by the warmth and the simplicity of Mamata Banerjee,” Somen Mitra’s widow Sikha Mitra joined the TMC after leaving the party in 2014.
Sikha Mitra, the widow of former West Bengal Congress chief Somen Mitra, returned to the ruling Trinamool Congress on Sunday. Ms. Mitra claimed that though she had resigned as a Trinamool Congress MLA in 2014, she had never officially quit the party. "My husband was made the state Congress chief but I had taken a break from active politics. I was touched by the warmth and simplicity of Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee who called me up and requested me to be an active TMC worker. I decided that if I join active politics again, it has to be under her," she told reporters.
