Raising speculation of potential dissent within the party ranks, Kunal Ghosh, a spokesperson for the Trinamool Congress, made notable alterations to his social media profile on Friday. Ghosh, who also holds the position of West Bengal General Secretary within the Trinamool Congress, notably omitted any affiliation with the party from his updated profile on X platform. Instead, he described himself solely as a journalist and social activist, removing all references to his political allegiance.
In a post shared on his official X handle, Ghosh indirectly criticized a segment of the Trinamool Congress leadership, without explicitly naming individuals. He expressed concerns about the purported selfishness and factionalism within the party's ranks, cautioning against actions that prioritize personal interests over the welfare of the party and its members.
While Ghosh refrained from specifying his targets, party insiders suggest that his remarks may have been directed towards a prominent leader from North Kolkata, with whom Ghosh has reportedly clashed previously.
Following the modifications to his social media presence, Ghosh has reportedly become unreachable and has refrained from engaging with media inquiries. This silence contrasts with his previous outspokenness, particularly regarding challenges faced by the party's spokesperson due to administrative decisions by the state government and law enforcement agencies.
Despite prior tensions with certain factions within the Trinamool Congress, Ghosh had previously maintained his political identity on social media platforms. However, his recent actions indicate a potential shift in approach, raising questions about the dynamics within the party and Ghosh's future role within it.
