Sougata said, "I heard that Dilip Ghosh wants to join Trinamool. The issue was discussed before and after the assembly elections. But I never had a direct talk with Dilip about this issue.'' Even though there was a discussion on this issue within the Trinamool before and after the polls, Dilip's change of party was not possible. But why did the then BJP president not join Trinamool? MP from Dumdum claimed, "Dilip could not be inducted into the party as the party did not take a final decision on the matter."
