Aditi said only TMC supremo Mamata Banerjee thinks or works so much for people in performing arts and allied fields. The singer said that she will be at the party's service in whichever way it deems fit.

Subhadra, a popular small screen actor, said only Banerjee can save the state from the "fascist BJP turning it into another Uttar Pradesh.

"If BJP comes to power (in West Bengal) it will decide what you will eat," she said.

The actor said that she had joined the saffron party in 2019 after hearing Modi's call of 'Sabka Sath, Sabka Vikas'.

"But it turned out to be a hoax. All those who have humanity should quit that communal party and save the country," she said.

Pandit urged the people to support the secular, democratic, pro-people Trinamool Congress, which is seeking to return to power for the third straight time.

Senior TMC MP Sougata Roy, state minister Sashi Panja welcomed the three to the party.
