“It's difficult to explain that I'm with TMC. I've not been allowed to party programs for 4-5 months. Technically, I am in TMC but my elder brother Suvendu has joined BJP. Mamata Banerjee has decided to contest from Nandigram out of emotion. I believe people will choose the right candidate. Everyone in Nandigram has faith in Suvendu.”

At the same time, Dibyendu Adhikari expressed his anger against the party and said, “The district president of the Trinamool Congress says that I am being called to every meeting of the party. This claim is false.”
