Supriyo, Sougata slam MP Sircar for ‘rotten’ remark against Trinamool

Sircar had said on Monday that “a section of the TMC was completely rotten” and that the party could not fight the BJP in the 2024 Lok Sabha polls with such elements. Referring to the cash recovered from the apartments of Arpita Mukherjee, an associate of now arrested ex-minister Partha Chatterjee, Sircar, a former bureaucrat, had said, “I never encountered such a situation even when I was an IAS officer. My family asked me to quit politics. My friends called me up to ask how much I got. It was a very embarrassing moment for me.”

Also, MP Roy said, “The TMC does not need a selfish person like him who is targeting the party in the time of a crisis. He should stop attaching too much importance to his views, and our party must immediately initiate disciplinary action against him. If he is so embarrassed by the recent developments, then why is he still holding his post? He should immediately resign as Rajya Sabha MP.”
