17 Gorkha Janmukti Morcha Councillors join BJP

Seventeen Gorkha Janmukti Morcha councillors joined Bhartiya Janta Party today in Darjeeling. The leaders were inducted into BJP at party headquarter in New Delhi in the presence of senior party leaders Mukul Roy and Kailash Vijayvargiya.
The Lok Sabha election results were a massive setback for Banerjee and her party, who were further left red-faced after Trinamool MLAs and councillors started deserting the ruling camp in Bengal and switched over to the BJP.
