Former President Pranab Mukherjee’s son, Abhijit Mukherjee has expressed a desire to return to the Congress which he left to join the Mamata Banerjee-led Trinamool Congress in 2021.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Mukherjee who was a MP from Jangipur Lok Sabha seat said, “After joining the TMC, I got no such assignments. Their work culture didn’t match with that of the Congress at all.”<\/p>\n

“I thought enough is enough. So, after coming back to Delhi senior leaders (from Congress) asked me indirectly why am I lying low. They told me to be active. I sought time from senior high command, maybe I would be able to meet them in a day or two. If they ask me to join immediately, I would do it. I am absolutely free and ready to contribute. If Congress accepts me, definitely. I am being marginalised currently but I don’t want to stir any controversy” he said.<\/p>\n

Mukherjee further said that in 2019 he lost the polls while contesting from the Congress and he was marginalised so he had left the Congress and joined TMC.<\/p>\n

“I lost the elections in 2019 due to reasons that I know but won’t be able to say out loud. High Command knows it too. For 2.5 years I carried out whatever assignment was given to me by the Congress. But they didn’t give me enough assignments, whatever may be the reason. I was gradually marginalised by a particular person, a particular group. In the meantime, Mamata Didi called me back as I had sought time from her. I met them and they offered me to join them. I had urged CM Mamata Banerjee to name a street in the name of my father and there are a lot of parks in Kolkata. I had urged the CM to name a park in my father’s name but no such action was taken,” Mukherjee said.<\/p>\n

He further said that in 2021 the number of seats of CPI (M) had reduced to zero in the Vidhan Sabha.<\/p>\n

“In Bengal, I did not want to join the CPI (M). I had decided that if TMC does not give me any place then I will fight alone. By contesting alone I may get less seats but I will get more vote percent,” Mukherjee said. (ANI)<\/p>\n
