After almost a gap of two years, Anubrata Mondal is back at the centrestage of Birbhum politics. He has been inducted into the core committee of Trinamul Congress unanimously by the members, thus expanding the membership to seven after the meeting today.
Trinamul chairperson Mamata Banerjee had set up the six-member core committee to run the TMC in Birbhum district after the arrest of Anubrata Mondal by CBI and then by the ED on 2022 in the cross-border cattle smuggling case. Anubrata Mondal was first lodged in Asansol Special Correctional Home and then shifted to Tihar Jail in New Delhi.
