Kolkata: Trinamool Congress appointed Kirti Azad as the new in-charge for its Goa unit, on Wednesday. Azad, a cricketer-turned-politician, had switched over to the TMC from Congress last year. He was earlier a BJP MP from Bihar.
Azad replaced TMC MP Mahua Moitra who was the in-charge of the Goa unit. The appointment will come into force with immediate effect, the party said in a statement.
