Trinamool may be eyeing nationwide function for Mukul Roy, Rajya Sabha seat doubtless

While Mukul Roy has made his homecoming to the Trinamool Congress, there isn’t any readability but how and in what capability he could be accommodated within the ruling get together. Will he be given a equally necessary function as he was when he joined the BJP in 2017? Will he stay an MLA or is there a much bigger duty awaiting him within the Parliament?
Amid these questions swirling within the corridors of the Trinamool headquarters, Mukul on Saturday referred to as on the get together’s new Number 2 and nationwide common secretary Abhishek Banerjee. The assembly lasted for a minimum of an hour.

A supply within the Trinamool stated, “As reward for returning to the Trinamool, Mukul Roy may be made the national vice-president of the party. What’s more, he may be provided with Z+ security by the Bengal government while his son Subhranshu might get Y+ security. However, he wrote to the Union Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) on Saturday asking for his ‘Z category’ security to be withdrawn. From this morning, state police has stepped up security outside his residence.”
Rejoining the Trinamool within the presence of Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee and Abhishek at Trinamool Bhavan on Friday, Mukul stated, “I am happy to be back with my old party. It’s good to be back with the old party members after a long time.”
The Trinamool supremo stated, “We welcome Mukul Roy. He will play an important role in the party.”

A senior Trinamool chief stated on Saturday, “After his meeting with Abhishek Banerjee, the party will decide what responsibility is to be vested in Mukul Roy going forward. Eyeing the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, we are focussing on extending our footprint beyond Bengal and Roy could make the job a lot easier as he is well connected to other states and has always believed in taking the party forward.”

“If the party decides to assign Mukul Roy the task of spreading our organisation across the country then he may resign as MLA and get a ticket to Rajya Sabha. Senior leader Yashwant Sinha, who also joined the party recently, may also get a seat in the Upper House,” he added.
Making his electoral debut within the latest Assembly election on a BJP ticket, Mukul was elected an MLA from Krishnanagar Uttar constituency. Though he stays a BJP MLA, the saffron get together would possibly search cancellation of his MLA-ship. However, the last word determination rests with the Speaker. He might or might not cancel his MLA-ship. The Trinamool would possibly need him to proceed as an MLA and the Speaker might choose him as head of the Public Accounts Committee, a put up, which by conference, goes to the Opposition get together. However, the BJP has already proposed one other MLA, economist Ashok Lahiri, for the put up.
