In order to support his son, Mamata Banerjee, Mithun Chakraborty left the TMC and allied with the BJP
Actor-turned-politician Mithun Chakraborty came under fire on Thursday from West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee for defecting from the TMC and joining the Bharatiya Janata Party in advance of the 2021 assembly elections. I had appointed TMC’s Rajya Sabha MP, Mithun Chakraborty. However, I was unaware that he was yet another major bengali traitor. Banerjee claimed that he went to RSS and knelt down in order to save his son. At an electoral rally in the North Dinjapur district’s Islampur, the TMC supremo was speaking. The district’s Raiganj Lok Sabha seat will hold elections in the second phase on April 26.
Recall that his son had a reservation. To look into the wedding, police had gone there. Fearing for his life, he headed straight to the Mumbai office of the RSS and claimed to be a BJP sevak. She said, “I only consider those who can fight to be human.” On July 8, 2018, the son of Chakraborty had to postpone his planned wedding due to the arrival of Mumbai police at the location to look into a rape case against the groom. On July 10, he wed after being granted bail. Chakraborty reacted angrily to Banerjee’s remarks.
My name is Gaddar. My name is Sardar. Everything is me. While on a BJP campaign stop in Darjeeling, Chakraborty told reporters, “She has lost her mind watching the crowd swell at the BJP rally.” Chakraborty was sent by the TMC to the Rajya Sabha in 2014, however since he was the brand ambassador of the organization that conducted a ponzi scheme in Bengal, it seems that the Saradha scam damaged his reputation. The group included numerous other TMC leaders. Chakraborty was questioned during the scam inquiry and gave 1.19 crore to the Enforcement Directorate after deducting taxes from the 2 crore he had received from the business for serving as their brand ambassador.
This took place in 2015. Chakraborty left the Rajya Sabha in 2016 on a health leave of absence.Speculation over the actor’s potential comeback to politics began in 2021 when the actor and RSS president Mohan Bhagwat met at the actor’s Mumbai home. When Chakraborty joined the BJP at a rally in Kolkata’s Brigade Parade Ground ahead of the West Bengal assembly election on March 7, 2021, he put an end to rumors. Speaking at the event was Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
