Kolkata: Amid sporadic protests faced by its leaders during the ongoing mass outreach campaign, TMC general secretary Abhishek Banerjee on Saturday said party members working for their “own benefits” have no future in the organisation.

Banerjee, while addressing a mega rally at Keshpur in West Midnapore district, also made it clear that Trinamool Congress supremo and Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee would take a call on who get tickets for the panchayat polls, which are due this year.

“The party has an eye on everyone; it clearly knows which gram pradhan is working for the people and those working for own benefits. However, those who think that they can continue working for themselves, are mistaken. Mend your ways or else you won't have any future in our party,” he said.

Abhishek Banerjee’s comments come in the backdrop of some TMC leaders facing protests in various parts of the state during the public outreach programme ‘Didir Suraksha Kawach’.

On the upcoming rural polls, he said: “The block leaders won't decide the candidature. Mamata Banerjee will decide that.” The Diamond Harbour MP, while referring to his often-repeated phrase of a “new Trinamool”, said in the next few years, the party needs to make sure that it consistently works for the people.

“The leaders endorsed by the people will be our candidates,” he said.

Abhishek Banerjee also alleged that goons who once worked for the CPI(M) have now joined hands with the BJP.
