Abhishek Banerjee reappointed as TMC national general secretary

TMC supremo Mamata Banerjee on Friday formed a new officer bearers’ committee, reappointing her nephew Abhishek Banerjee as the party’s national general secretary and veteran leader Yashwant Sinha as its vice-president.
Senior TMC leaders Subrata Bakshi and Chandrima Bhattacharya, too, have been given the post of the party’s national vice-presidents.

Among others, TMC miner Aroop Biswas has been made the treasurer, and Kolkata mayor Firhad Hakim in-charge of coordination.
Banerjee had last week dissolved the erstwhile national office bearers’ committee and the portfolios that came with it, amid a growing internal strife between the old guard and the young leaders. She then formed a 20-member working committee, packed with party veterans.
