Parno Mittra Joins Trinamool Congress
A famous actress named Parno Mittra from Bengal has joined a political party called the Trinamool Congress (TMC).
She said she made this decision to fix a mistake she had made earlier.
Before this, she was part of another political party, the BJP, and even ran for elections but lost.
She joined the TMC in front of important party leaders in Kolkata.
Another politician, Tapas Roy, who had beaten her in the previous elections, recently switched from TMC to BJP.
Bengali actress Parno Mittra joined the Trinamool Congress (TMC) in the presence of senior leaders.
Mittra described her previous affiliation with the BJP as a 'mistake' and expressed her desire to align with the state's ruling leadership.
She had joined the BJP in July 2019 and contested the 2021 Assembly elections from Baranagar but lost to TMC's Tapas Roy.
Tapas Roy, who defeated Mittra in 2021, recently quit the TMC to join the BJP in early 2024.
