Former Kolkata mayor Sovan Chatterjee, who joined the BJP earlier this month, has expressed desire to quit the saffron fold for being “regularly humiliated”, his close associate Baishakhi Banerjee claimed on Saturday, 31 August.
Chatterjee, a four-time TMC MLA, had joined the BJP along with Banerjee in New Delhi on 14 August.
“Since joining the BJP, we are being regularly humiliated and insulted without any reason. Sovan Chatterjee had taken a sabbatical from active politics. It was I who played a key role in bringing him back and made him join the BJP,” she told reporters.
