Kolkata: Senior Trinamool Congress (TMC) MP Saugata Roy once again got into controversy by speaking against his own party.
Speaking at a Bijoya Sammilani, Roy was heard saying that if a party is busy organizing games and fairs (Khela and Mela), especially when the election is near, that party loses ‘political soul’.
“Elections are nearing and nearly six months are left and the party should focus on political activities, strategies to cope with the challenges and not anything else that is not related to the political activities or political party’s identity,” mentioned the TMC MP.
Opposition also upped their ante and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) state president and Rajya Sabha MP Samik Bhattacharya said that he wondered why Saugata Roy became vocal so late. Read Also West Bengal Crim
