Expressing views not aligned with party: TMC removes Kunal Ghosh from General Secretary post

• TMC removes Kunal Ghosh as party's General Secretary
• Ghosh recently expressed views that are not in line with the party’s stance
• Party released a statement saying, "Kunal Ghosh has recently made some comments which are not compatible with the party's position"

The Trinamool Congress (TMC) has removed Kunal Ghosh from his position as General Secretary of the state organisation. The decision was made due to Ghosh’s expression of views that are not in line with the party’s stance.

The Trinamool issued a statement on Kunal's removal today, which said, “Recently, Mr. Kunal Ghosh has been expressing views that do not align with those of the party. It is important to clarify that these are his personal opinions and should not be attributed to the party. Only statements issued from AITC headquarters should be considered the official position of the party.”

“Mr. Ghosh was previously relieved from his role as party spokesperson. Now, he has been removed from the position of General Secretary of the state organization,” the statement added.

We urge all media outlets not to conflate his views with those of the party, as doing so may necessitate legal action, the statement said, which was signed by TMC Rajya Sabha MP Derek O’ Brien.
