'Will continue to expose traitors': Abhishek Banerjee to join BJP? TMC leader clarifies

NEW DELHI: Trinamool Congress (TMC) leader Abhishek Banerjee on Thursday denied reports of him joining the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), saying that he remains committed to his party.

"I am a loyal soldier of TMC," Banerjee said, rejecting claims of differences with party chief Mamata Banerjee. "My leader is Mamata Banerjee," he added.


'I will continue to expose traitors'

Speaking at a TMC party conference in Kolkata, Banerjee said he would continue to expose "traitors" within the party. "I will continue to expose traitors in TMC, just like I did during the last assembly polls," he said.




He also accused those spreading rumors of his defection of misleading people. "Those who are saying that I am joining the BJP are spreading canards," Banerjee said.

“Till the time all of you are with us, we will continue to demolish BJP's 'chakravyuh'... Those who spoke ill about the party have been identified. I was the one to identify people like Mukul Roy and Suvendu Adhikari who went against the party,” the Diamond Harbour MP added.
