Ghosh and other rebel TMC MPs, including Mala Roy, have arrived in Delhi. According to reports, the rebels are expected to meet Speaker Birla on Monday.
The list includes some of the closest aides of TMC Supremo Mamata Banerjee and fiercest critics of the BJP-led regime.
Ghosh is believed to have reached out to Kakoli Ghosh Dastidar and pledged her support to the rebel camp.
Actress-turned-politician Saayoni Ghosh has notified the Enforcement Directorate (ED) of her inability to attend her second round of questioning on Wednesday regarding the West Bengal school recruitment case.
The opposition leaders are viewing it as a U-turn from her earlier commitments to extend full cooperation in the matter.
The actress-turned-politician faced an 11-hour questioning session on Friday in connection with the multi-crore scam.
Apparently, Ghosh’s name figured in the list of star campaigners till June 28 and she participated in the campaigning schedule.
On Sunday morning, Ghosh was called to the East Women Police station after an FIR was lodged against her. The actress turned-youth leader accompanied by the Trinamul’s Rajya Sabha member Sushmita Deb, party general secretary and spokesman Kunal Ghosh, former MP Arpita Ghosh, Tripura TMC chief Subal Bhowmik and other leaders met Sub-Divisional police officer Ramesh Chandra Yadav. They inquired why Ghosh was called to the police station through a verbal intimation and not with any written notice.
Speculation is rife that Babul Supriyo will become a Rajya Sabha MP in the seat left by TMC’s Arpita Ghosh and Saayoni Ghosh will fight as the TMC candidate for the Asansol Lok Sabha seat. The presence of Babul Supriyo , who is a good speaker will further strengthen the TMC in the Rajya Sabha, political sources feel.
Yogi Adityanath on Tuesday lambasted his West Bengal counterpart Mamata Banerjee on the issue of women safety and alleged that incidents of ''Love Jihad'' are continuing unabated.
