Notably, the TMC distanced itself from Partha after cash amounting to Rs 21 crore was recovered from the residence of his close associate Arpita Mukherjee.
Trinamool Congress MP Saugata Roy on Friday said that sacked leader and former minister Partha Chatterjee "embarrassed and dishonoured" the party following his arrest in connection with an alleged teacher recruitment scam.
"I don't know if Partha is a victim of some conspiracy. He (sacked WB Minister Partha Chatterjee) has embarrassed us and dishonoured our party. We want a complete probe with an appropriate punishment for him and his associates... we took action against him, dropped his ministerial posts and took all party posts," Mr Roy told ANI.
Notably, the TMC distanced itself from Partha after cash amounting to Rs 21 crore was recovered from the residence of his close associate Arpita Mukherjee.
The TMC MP said that the party had no idea that such a thing was taking place.
