Share Article Trinamool MP Dibyendu Adhikari shares the stage with Modi. Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday inaugurated a number of projects relating to the Ministry of Petroleum at Haldia in the State’s Purba Medinipur district, which included an LPG import terminal, and the 348 km-long Dobhi-Durgapur natural gas pipeline. Even as Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee gave the government event a miss, her party MP Dibyendu Adhikari was present. Mr. Adhikari, Lok Sabha MP from Tamluk in the district, is the brother of Suvendu Adhikari, who recently defected from Trinamool Congress and joined the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). The development triggered speculation over whether Mr. Dibyendu Adhikari was defecting to the BJP, too.
