After angry outbursts on social media against state party chief Dilip Ghosh and Leader of Opposition Suvendu Adhikary, West Bengal BJP MP Soumitra Khan on Sunday came up with a public apology for his earlier remarks. Khan is also the BJP West Bengal\u2019s young wing chief.<\/p>\n
In his apology, Khan has promised to lead a movement against the ruling Trinamool Congress in the state. A few weeks ago, Soumitra Khan had said he was resigning as the BJP\u2019s youth wing president in Bengal, and later withdrew the resignation after what he said was the Central leadership\u2019s intervention.<\/p>\n
On Sunday, he apologised for what he said was \u201ca blunder on my part\u201d. \u201cI am hereby offering an apology, seeking your forgiveness. I shouldn’t have made such a comment on social media,\u201d he said in his address.<\/p>\n
Bengal BJP chief Dilip Ghosh later said: \u201cSoumitra Khan is an emotional person. I have no ill feelings for him.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
