Son of former president Pranab Mukherjee, Abhijit Mukherjee joined All India Trinamool Congress (TMC) on July 05 in Kolkata. Former Congress leader Abhijit has been a two-term MP in the Lok Sabha in his father’s seat of Jangipur. “The way Mamata Banerjee halted the recent communal wave by BJP, I believe that in the future, with the support of others, she would be able to do the same in the entire country,” Abhijit said after joining TMC.
