In a massive setback for Congress Party, Former President Pranab Mukherjee's son Abhijit Mukherjee joined the Trinamool Congress (TMC) in West Bengal.
The former Congress MP thanked West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee for the opportunity and hoped that she will be able to replicate her victory in Bengal at national level.
"The way Mamata Banerjee has halted the recent communal wave by BJP, I believe that in the future, with the support of others, she would be able to do the same in the entire country" said Mukherjee after joining the party.
After a hotly contest battle for supremacy over the state, the Trinamool Congress (TMC) defeated BJP and the others to retain power as Mamata Banerjee was sworn in as the Chief Minister again.
