Kolkata: Senior Trinamool Congress leader Anubrata Mondal on Wednesday launched a sharp attack on Abhishek Banerjee, alleging that the party's national general secretary was responsible for his imprisonment in the cattle smuggling case and claiming he repeatedly urged Mamata Banerjee to sideline her nephew after the party's electoral debacle.
The broadside came hours after veteran TMC MLA Madan Mitra formally joined the dissident camp led by Leader of Opposition Ritabrata Banerjee, adding to the escalating rebellion against the Mamata Banerjee-Abhishek Banerjee leadership. Mondal is already a part of the rebel group.
