India Today  

Hours after announcing his dramatic resignation as a Trinamool Congress Rajya Sabha MP, Dinesh Trivedi said he was being forced to abuse the prime minister and the home minister by some "insecure leaders" of the TMC. Speaking at the India Today Conclave East, Dinesh Trivedi alleged that some of his fellow MPs from the TMC would insist that he abuse PM Narendra Modi and Union home minister Amit Shah in his Parliament speeches. Attacking the TMC leadership, Dinesh Trivedi said the party has stopped holding conversations on national and state issues after it came to power in West Bengal. The party has really suffered due to these sycophants," Dinesh Trivedi said, adding that his decision to resign wasn't overnight and involved considerable thinking.
