In the midst of those questions roaming within the corridors of the Trinamool headquarters, Mukul on Saturday met the get together’s new quantity two and nationwide normal secretary Abhishek Banerjee. The assembly lasted a minimum of an hour.
A Trinamool supply mentioned, “Mukul Roy could also be made the nationwide vice chairman of the get together as a reward for his return to the Trinamool.
