Protests erupt outside Kasba Police station as 3 arrested in alleged Kolkata college gang rape
In a big setback for West Bengal BJP, Alipurduar MLA Suman Kanjilal joined TMC on Sunday. Suman Kanjilal joined TMC in the presence of TMC national general secretary Abhishek Banerjee. There was talk of Suman Kanjilal joining TMC for a long time, but on Sunday he joined TMC. In a statement issued by TMC, Suman Kanjiwal was announced to join the party.
TMC in its tweet said: "Rejecting the anti-people policies & hate-laden agenda of @BJP4India, Shri Suman Kanjilal joined the AITC family today, in the presence of our National General Secretary Shri @abhishekaitc. Yet another @BJP4Bengal MLA realises the truth that BJP has no intention to serve people!"
Suman Kanjilal was also the district secretary of the Falakata BJP in Alipurduar. He is counted as one of the good orators of the BJP. Suman was once a journalist, but he joined politics.
