Trinamool Congress's issues deepened on Thursday as exit buzz surrounded party MP Kalyan Banerjee after his ultimatum to former West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee.
TMC MP Kirti Azad expressed confidence about a truce between the two, referring to the Lok Sabha MP as a "fighter" and saying that Kalyan was "justified" in his anger against the party.
Azad said that Kalyan "is an emotional person" and his emotions "must be respected", while asserting that Mamata would speak to him and "make things right".
Kalyan, while making his ultimatum public on Thursday, announced his decision to opt out of cases linked to Abhishek Banerjee, citing the TMC's decision to not consult him before another writ petition was filed and another lawyer took over a case he was handling.
Azad said that Kalyan was "angry", adding that his anger was "justified and right".
