BREAKING: Former President Pranab Mukherjee’s son Abhijit Mukherjee joins TMC

Former President Pranab Mukherjee’s son, Congress MP Abhijit Mukherjee, joined the Trinamool Congress (TMC) in Kolkata on Monday. In the presence of senior TMC leaders, he was initiated into the party at a press conference in the city. Abhijit Mukherjee, a two-term Lok Sabha member from his father’s Jangipur constituency, has been in talks with the TMC leadership for a few weeks.

“Sharmistha is a free and separate entity,” Abhijit remarked of his sister Sharmistha, a Congress member. She is capable of making her own decisions and has the right to do so.” Abhijit Mukherjee’s decision to join the TMC is considered a big embarrassment for the Congress, which recently lost prominent figures such as Jyotiraditya Scindia, Jitin Prasada, Himanta Biswa Sarma, and others.
