Soumendu Adhikari

Soumendu Adhikari, the younger brother of BJP leader Suvendu Adhikari, was questioned by the West Bengal Police for around ten hours in connection with its probe into alleged irregularities in some projects under Contai Municipality.

The Supreme Court Monday refused to entertain the plea of BJP leader Soumendu Adhikari, brother of former West Bengal Minister Suvendu Adhikari, against the Calcutta High Court order adjourning his petition challenging his removal from the post of administrator of Contai Municipality in Purba Medinipur district.

Days after rebel Trinamool leader and former Bengal minister Suvendu Adhikari quit Mamata Banerjee's party and joined the BJP, his youngest brother, too, switched sides and today joined the saffron camp.

Following his removal as the chairman of the board of administrators of Contai Municipality in Purba Medinipur district, Trinamool Congress leader Soumendu Adhikari on Thursday hinted that he would join the BJP following the footsteps of his political heavyweight brother Suvendu.
