Arjun Singh, who rejoined TMC today, has recently been critical of the working of the West Bengal BJP unit.
New Delhi: BJP MP Arjun Singh joined the ruling TMC on Sunday (May 22) in the presence of party's general secretary Abhishek Banerjee in Kolkata, ANI reported. He reached Banerjee's office around 4:30 pm and held a marathon meeting with senior TMC leaders. Welcoming Singh to the party, the Trinamool Congress wrote on Twitter, "Warmly welcoming former Vice President of @BJP4Bengal and MP from Barrackpore, Shri @ArjunsinghWB into the All India Trinamool Congress family. He joins us today in the presence of our National General Secretary Shri @abhishekaitc.” "There is nothing as such that be termed as the last word in politics," Singh, the former BJP state vice-president told the reporters earlier.

The development comes amid speculations of West Bengal BJP MP Arjun Singh’s switchover to Mamata Banerjee-led party. Singh had quit TMC to join the saffron party just ahead of the 2019 Lok Sabha polls, wherein he bagged the Barrackpore Lok Sabha seat.
