Trinamool's first chairperson looks for BJP berth

Kolkata, Feb 9 (UNI) The BJP, which seems to have lost much of its momentum and 'wave' noticed in 2014 Lok Sabha elections in West Bengal, is leaving no stone unturned to regain ground before the Assembly polls and the latest step is to bring Mr Pankaj Banerjee- the first chairperson of ruling Trinamool Congress-into the party fold.
According to state BJP sources, talks to bring Mr Banerjee, a former close aide of Trinamool supremo Mamata Banerjee, on board are on .
The move comes before the crucial West Bengal Assembly polls, where Mr Banerjee has also been offered a party ticket, the sources maintained.
