The newly-appointed West Bengal BJP President and Rajya Sabha member Samik Bhattacharya is currently in New Delhi for preliminary discussions regarding the upcoming session.
Bhattacharya is expected to return to Kolkata on Saturday evening, accompanied by Sunil Bansal, the party’s central observer for West Bengal, in time for the two-day meeting.
