Pranab Mukherjee’s Son Abhijit Mukherjee joins Trinamool

Former president Pranab Mukherjee’s son Abhijit Mukherjee today joined the Trinamool Congress, ending weeks of speculation and denial by him.

A former Congress MP from Jangipur and an MLA from Nalhati, Trinamool may offer Mr Mukherjee the Jangipur assembly seat which is due a bypoll as a candidate there had passed away just before the elections.

Abhijit Mukherjee’s father Pranab Mukherjee won the Jangipur parliamentary constituency in Bengal’s Murshidabad district twice as a Congress MP till he vacated it in 2012 to run for President.
