Ahead of Kol civic body polls, CPM councillor joins Trinamool
City Mayor and TMC leader Sovan Chatterjee told reporters the CPI(M) councillor of Ward No 39 Mohammed Jaseemuddin today joined the party.
"Today Mohammedad Jaseemuddin joined the party and more councillors from different parties are in talk with us. The party leadership will decide whether to induct them or not," Chatterjee said.
