New Delhi: Trinamool Congress (TMC) MP Abhishek Banerjee has been appointed as the party’s national general secretary on Saturday.
The young TMC leader has been elevated by TMC supremo Mamata Banerjee to a position of greater responsibility at the party’s first organisational meeting since the resounding Assembly election victory.
Addressing a press meet, TMC leader Partha Chatterjee also said that the working committee has decided that one person will be allowed to hold just one post in the party, and the core committee has duly given its approval.
Abhishek, the nephew of the party supremo, will be replacing Subrata Bakshi as the national general secretary, while actor-turned-TMC leader Sayoni Ghosh has been made the youth wing president – a post earlier held by the MP.
