West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee
Amid the ongoing exodus from the TMC ahead of the assembly polls, two-time MLA from Diamond Harbour Dipak Haldar on Monday lashed out at the party leadership for not allowing him to work for the masses, and said he would quit the party soon, fuelling speculations of his possible switchover to the BJP. Haldar, however, remained tight-lipped on joining the saffron camp.

“I am a two-time MLA. But, since 2017, I am not allowed to work properly for the masses. Despite informing the leadership, no action was taken to improve the situation. I am not informed about any party programme. I am answerable to the people of my constituency. So I have decided to quit the party. I will send my resignation to the district and state president soon,” he said.
For the last few months, Haldar has been speaking against the party leadership. Haldar, considered to be a close associate of BJP leader Sovan Chatterjee, since his days in the TMC, recently met the latter at his residence in South Kolkata.
