My Father Is "Extremely Unwell, Needs Medical Attention": Mukul Roy's Son

Mukul Roy, an MLA from Krishnanagar Uttar, switched over to the TMC from the BJP along with his son after the 2021 assembly elections.

Mukul Roy needs medical attention, his son Subhranshu said on Wednesday after the veteran politician from West Bengal expressed his desire to return to the BJP.

Speaking to reporters, he said Mr Roy's statement about returning to the BJP should not be taken seriously.

"I have heard what my father said. He needs medical attention. He has physical and neurological problems. Those trying to use my father to serve their political interests should be ashamed of themselves," said Subhranshu, who is a former MLA.

"He is extremely unwell and suffers from dementia and Parkinson's disease," he added.
