Suspended BJP leader Jay Prakash Majumdar joins TMC
Kolkata: Suspended BJP leader Jay Prakash Majumdar joined Trinamool Congress, in the presence of CM Mamata Banerjee, in Kolkata, on Tuesday.
In January, the Bengal BJP temporarily suspended two of its senior leaders for allegedly indulging in activities that go against the party. Jayprakash Majumdar, one of the party's state spokespersons, and Ritesh Tiwari were sacked.
Majumdar had joined the BJP after quitting Congress in 2014.
Following his suspension from the saffron party, Jay Prakash Majumdar had attacked the party's central leadership and accused them of ignoring the core issues and deserting the workers in time of need.
