"Chose The Team That Picked Me In Playing 11": Trinamool's Babul Supriyo To NDTV

Former Union Minister Babul Supriyo, who moved from the BJP to the Trinamool Congress in the past few days, today reiterated that he wants to be part of a team that embraces him warmly and makes him part of the playing 11. Once again deploying sports metaphors, the Bollywood singer-turned-politician's move has reportedly created a buzz on West Bengal political circles -- days after his move, West Bengal BJP chief Dilip Ghosh was replaced with Sukanta Majumdar. This has been perceived as a move to stem any haemorrhaging in the state party unit. Mr Supriyo, however, refused to be drawn into the matter.
