Kolkata, May 23 (PTI) The return of BJP MP Arjun Singh to the TMC has evoked a tepid response in the ruling party of Bengal, with senior leaders on Monday questioning his worth in the organization.Senior TMC leader and MP Sougata Roy said Singh"s entry would not bring with it any significant gain for the party."The party has made a decision. I have nothing to say. But I don"t feel his induction would be of great profit or loss. We already have six assembly seats in Barrackpore. With Singh joining the camp, we will have all seven seats. I don"t think that is what you call a big gain. People support the TMC; if anybody joins the party, it is always welcome move," he told a news channel.In yet another jolt to the beleaguered saffron camp in West Bengal, Singh rejoined the TMC on Sunday, calling it his "homecoming".TMC"s North 24 Parganas district president Partha Bhowmick, who had been at loggerheads with Singh over various issues, maintained that he had no qualms about the MP"s return "He joined the party only after the top leadership gave its nod. So I have nothing to say about it," Bhowmick said.Another senior leader of the TMC, who did not wish to be named, felt that re-induction of leaders like Singh could send out a "wrong message"."He (Singh) and his followers had unleashed a reign of terror in the area (Barrackpore). Arjun Singh is an opportunist who deserted the party during crisis. Now he is back as the BJP failed to seize power in Bengal," the TMC leader said.A meeting of senior party leaders from North 24 Parganas district was held in the Titagarh area this evening, which was attended by Singh.The closed-door meet continued till late in the evening."Arjun Singh met party leaders. For the time being, he has not been given any responsibility. The party top brass will decide on his role later. Our national general secretary Abhishek Banerjee will hold a meeting with party workers on May 30," senior TMC leader and state minister Jyotipriyo Mullick said.Meanwhile, Singh said he had committed a mistake by leaving the party in 2019."I would follow all instructions of the top leadership. I have been part of the TMC since its inception in 1998. Due to some misunderstanding, I had left the party and that was a mistake. Now I want to atone for it," he claimed.Singh, one of the prominent Hindi-speaking leaders of the TMC, had joined the saffron camp just ahead of the Lok Sabha polls in 2019 and went on to win the Barrackpore Lok Sabha seat.
