Kolkata, May 27 (SocialNews.XYZ) Veteran Trinamool Congress leader and four-time MP Dr Kakoli Ghosh Dastidar on Wednesday tendered her resignation from all the organisational posts in the party with immediate effect.
Ghosh Dastidar, the MP from Barasat in the North 24 Parganas district, sent her resignation in a letter to the Trinamool state President Subrata Bakshi.
"With immense pain and concern, I am resigning from the post of Chairperson of All India Trinamool Mahila Congress and other organisational posts, committees and responsibilities of the party," she wrote.
She indirectly attacked the party's current Chief Whip in the Lok Sabha, Kalyan Banerjee, who had replaced her in the post.
"There is no point in holding a post when the indecent behaviour of another uneducated, rude party MP towards a woman MP cannot be stopped, and the cooperation and sympathy of the senior leadership of the party cannot be obtained," Ghosh Dastidar claimed in the letter.
At the same time, she also noted that the attempts by the Trinamool leadership to cover up different allegations of corruption against a section of the party leaders had deeply pained her.
Ghosh Dastidar had also claimed in her letter that she was also depressed over the approach of the party leadership on the issue of the ghastly rape and murder of a junior woman doctor at state-run R.G. Kar Medical College & Hospital in Kolkata within the hospital premises in August 2024.
However, she stressed that she will continue to operate as an ordinary member of Trinamool.
Her move comes just a day after she attended an administrative review meeting chaired by Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari on Tuesday, where she was invited as the MP from Barasat.
Earlier, Ghosh Dastidar had also resigned from the post of Trinamool’s organisational district President for Barasat.
The difference between Ghosh Dastidar and the party leadership started soon after the results of the West Bengal Assembly elections were declared, with Trinamool supremo Mamata Banerjee replacing her as Chief Whip in the Lok Sabha.
Following this, Ghosh Dastidar made an anguished and suggestive post on social media. "Known her since 76, started the journey in 84. Today I am rewarded for four decades of loyalty," she posted.
