TMC Spokesperson Kunal Ghosh Changes Bio On X, Speculations Rife About Him Leaving Party

Speculations are rife that Ghosh is likely to quit TMC ahead of the upcoming Lok Sabha elections 2024.

Kunal Ghosh changes his bio on X handle.

Trinamool Congress (TMC) national spokesperson and senior leader Kunal Ghosh on Friday removed the party's name from his official X handle. Kunal Ghosh mentioned "Journalist" and "Social Activist" in his bio on X. Speculations are rife that Ghosh is likely to quit TMC ahead of the upcoming Lok Sabha elections 2024. However, no official announcement has been made by the TMC leader yet. 

Earlier in his last tweet on Thursday, Ghosh stated: "Incompetent, group-centric, and selfish leaders. Will continue to deceive all year round, yet faces tough competition from Didi, Abhishek, @AITCofficial. Victory depends on the enthusiasm of party workers, not personal gain, which may not be repeated."

নেতা অযোগ্য গ্রুপবাজ স্বার্থপর। সারাবছর ছ্যাঁচড়ামি করবে আর ভোটের মুখে দিদি, অভিষেক, @AITCofficial দলের প্রতি কর্মীদের আবেগের উপর ভর করে জিতে যাবে, ব্যক্তিগত স্বার্থসিদ্ধি করবে, সেটা বারবার হতে পারে না।

Kunal didn't mention anyone in that post. Consequently, curiosity arose, whom is Kunal referring to?  It is speculated that Kunal's post revolved around Kolkata's leader and politics. The post came after TMC leader Sudip Bandopadhyay convened a meeting of North Kolkata leaders regarding the preparations of Trinamool's brigade on March 10, in which Kunal was not invited, according to the local media reports. 

The rally will be addressed by TMC supremo Mamata Banerjee and the party's national general secretary, Abhishek Banerjee, according to party officials, news agency PTI reported.

Abhishek Banerjee said on X that the rally, termed 'Jana Garjan Sabha' (roar of the masses), will also pledge to expel the "outside tormentors" from Bengal, a veiled allusion to the BJP and its national leaders who have been visiting the state on various topics.
