For Darjeeling there are two spokespersons, Bedabrata Dutta is the spokesperson for Darjeeling (plains) while the Hills will have NB Khawas as the spokesperson.

Earlier, the party had announced the names of 34 spokespersons, 12 of whom will be talking on national issues and 22 on state issues.

This is for the first time when Trinamool Congress will have spokesperson for each and every district. The decision has been taken to avoid confusion and give reply to the systematic and orchestrated canard spread by the BJP in the national state and local levels.

From setting up of a seven member core committee to announcement of the spokespersons to talk on national, state and local issues clearly indicate that Mamata Banerjee will leave no stone unturned to ensure party's victory in 2021 Assembly election.
