Mamata Banerjee’s protégé-turned-rival Suvendu Adhikari, who defeated her from Nandigram in the 2021 Assembly elections, was unanimously chosen as the Leader of Opposition in the West Bengal Legislative Assembly by the BJP state committee on Monday.
Union Cabinet Ravi Shankar Prasad made the announcement at the BJP state headquarters in Kolkata.
Suvendu Adhikari thanked everyone while accepting the post but said all present there had a heavy heart in face of the post-poll violence in Bengal.
