After meeting Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari, a statement by Mamata Banerjee's brother Babun Banerjee has rekindled politics in Bengal. Babun Banerjee said after meeting Adhikari at his club that "I want to see Suvendu Adhikari become the chief minister again, given the work he has done for Bengal in the last six months." Babun's statement came when Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari arrived for a visit to Kalighat. He first went to the puja of Mamata's brother Swapan (Babun) Banerjee's club. He performed a puja there. Also, Babun said that "I garlanded Dada, my wife garlanded, my daughter gave Jagannath, my son-in-law gave a picture of Maa Kali, besides sweetening his mouth a bit. After this meeting, rumours started in political corridors that Babun Banerjee may join BJP! Many people claim that the atmosphere of anti-Subhendu Adhikari is a bit soft.
