The gossip mills are agog with Mukul Roy returning to the Trinamool Congress today. I had way back in 2017 stated that he could be a Trojan Horse, planted by an astute politician, Mamata Banerjee, to disturb and destroy the BJP plans of setting foot in West Bengal. The TMC would be meeting today to discuss the admittance of the defectors, who deserted the party to join the BJP before the elections.
Mukul may not come alone at the cost of losing his seat in the legislative assembly but could cause a defection of a third of the newly-elected BJP MLAs to steer clear of the draconian anti-defection laws.
One thing that has become apparent is that many of the defectors who won the elections in the BJP Party symbol do not subscribe to the new party’s ideologies. Mamata would be destroying her political foes, I guess, Mukul included if he was not sent into the BJP by Mamata herself.
The invincibility shield of Modi seems to be wearing out.
