Prior removal, Kunal praised BJP's Tapas Roy: "worthy candidate"
In a significant development in West Bengal politics, TMC MLA Tapas Roy has switched allegiance and joined the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). The induction ceremony took place on wednesday (March 6) and Opposition leader Subvendu Adhikari, BJP state president Sukant Majumdar were present.
Tapas Roy's move to BJP signifies a major setback for Mamata Banerjee's Trinamool Congress (TMC) ahead of the upcoming elections. This development is expected to impact the political dynamics in West Bengal significantly.
