New Delhi: A day after former Union Minister Babul Supriyo made headlines for announcing his 'retirement' from active politics, the BJP leader on Sunday (August 1) shared yet another post on his social media this time targeting West Bengal BJP chief Dilip Ghosh and TMC's Kunal Ghosh for their remarks on his decision to quit.

On his Facebook account Babul Supriyo wrote in Bangla, "I have read your comments. Each is seeing it in their own way and understanding it in that way and supporting it, they are opposing it, they are raising questions and also asking. Some people are using language as per their choice. I accept it all, but I can respond with my work. Why do I have to be at the post of an MP or a Minister?"

"Give me some time. I will now focus on my singing and shows. I will have a lot of time in hand. I will not have to deal with such comments every day. So much positive energy will be saved. I can use this positive energy for good work," Babul Supriyo added.

Earlier, BJP's West Bengal unit president Dilip Ghosh at a press conference questioned the move to share his decision to resign on a social media post. 

TMC's Kunal Ghosh called Supriyo's move a 'drama'. "Lok Sabha is on and Speaker is sitting. And instead of giving his resignation, there is drama on Facebook. Has no desire to quit. He is trying to get people to follow him," he said.

On Saturday, Supiyo had announced his decision to quit politics. “After speaking to my father, mother, wife daughter and friends and understanding everything, I am saying that I am switching over to any other party. I have not been called by TMC, Congress or CPIM and neither am I joining them. I am one team player! Have always supported one team Mohun Bagan. Have done only one party BJP. That's it!” he wrote.

However, he later edited the post saying, “After speaking to my father, mother, wife daughter and friends and understanding everything, I am saying that I am leaving.”
