He tweeted about this on Thursday morning. In that tweet, he wrote, "Partha Chatterjee should be removed from his ministry and all posts in the party immediately. He should be expelled.

Last Friday, ED raided the house of current Industries Minister and former Education Minister Partha Chatterjee at Naktala. He was arrested on Saturday after nearly 27 hours of interrogation. Partha is currently in ED custody for 10 days.

After the arrest of Partha, Kunal, Firhad Hakim, Arup Biswas, Chandrima Bhattacharya held a press conference and said that the party and the government will take action against Partha if the allegations are proved. They gave the message that he is not being removed from the ministry and Trinamool posts. But on Sunday, Kunal started raising the tone against Partha. He said that whoever the accused may be, the party will take strict action based on the fact that the investigating agency (ED) submits minimum evidence against him in the court.
